Would really be best to have this off of HEAD if we're going to be
looking at it rather than v12. We certainly aren't going to add new

What would be the advantage of using wolfSSL over OpenSSL?
Avoiding the OpenSSL-vs-GPL linkage problem with readline.
We have added support for allegedly-OpenSSL compatible libraries such as
LibreSSL before, so some tweaks for

It should work all right --- it's the default ssl library on OpenBSD
and some other platforms, so we have some buildfarm coverage for it.
(AFAICT, none of the OpenBSD machines are running the ssl t
