perhaps the most stable code will be either 0.9.6b or 0.9.6c, I can't
speak for 0.9.7.

There are two versions of openssl source available, the engine version and
the non-engine version. Both will work pretty much the same. But, if you
ever intend upon using hardware encryption devices you will want the
engine version.

My understanding is that mm is not longer required. So yes, its built in.

This list is at least one spot, I'm sure others here might recommend other
lists to x-post such problems to.
