Comment (by m-a):
I just figured that none of my patches is ready for 1:1 merge yet, in some
places, the "quadoption" has leaked in comments, and some places need a
guard for when the option isn't present, such as this:
{{{
/* The leaf/host certificate can't be skipped. */
if ((idx != 0) &&
(option (OPT_SSLVERIFYPARTIAL)))
allow_skip = 1;
}}}
I also wonder if we should move the "can we do partial verification" into
autoconfigure to not second-guess OpenSSL includes, but use a
HAVE_PARTIAL_VERIFICATION option instead, for later maintainbility.
