Eeeep.  I know that would only be required in pem.h, but since the
section where ERR_load_PEM_strings() is declared is generated
automagically, it ultimately means we need to have that construction
in all headers.  It's ugly...

Oh well, I'll see what I can do.  I think I'll use names like
_OPENSSL_DECLARED_FOO...
