My pain points and an idea

with 3.2.2 the openssl unit is for version 1.1.x, for now, lots of distro 
removed openssl 1.1, even in slackware-current
I can not upgrade to 3.2.4-rc1 just because it's come with openssl 3, I was 
stucked then...

Delete the openssl directory in $PREFIX/fpc/$FPCVERSION/units/$FPCTARGET/  and simply add a copy of the units that you want to some dir that you include with -Fu.

my thinking:
is it possible to split to compiler and rtl/packages?
after certain period of a release, 6 months or 1 year or by devel team thought, 
release a updated rtl/packages only version
This is hard to impossible. And to even attempt it to for the benefit of a package (openssl) that is relatively standalone is counterproductive. It is doing something really hard to fix something really simple.
