Hi,

attached is a patch (suggested by danielsh) to update the information on building OpenSSL as part of building on Windows from Source. As of OpenSSL 1.0.0 the mentioned masm-support is no longer available. Therefore you have to use one of the other versions (do_ms or do_nasm).

I guess the same patch could be nominated for 1.8 and 1.9 (given that 1.7 is being phased out, I guess there's no point in applying that to 1.7 too).

[[
Update build instructions for Windows (from Source) when building with OpenSSL >= 1.0.0.

* INSTALL
   (II.E.4): update note on building OpenSSL >= 1.0.0.
]]

Regards,
Stefan
