Bug description:
Make and make test succeed, but the test programs are linked against the static
libraries, never against the shared libraries, so if there is a problem with the
shared libraries (and there is in my system, all applications linked against them core
dump) it's not detected.
The problem is probably not with the openssl shared libraries but they fail to work
when used. I haven't found where exactly is the problem, but for reference here's the
complete information.
make report returns:
OpenSSL self-test report:

Test passed.
Note: This is the last recompile I did, I started with version 0.9.6g, then downloaded
the last snapshot and tried again, then disabled use of assembler, then disabled
optimization. Also tested the recommendation from bug report #29: re-linked without
the -Wl,-Bsymbolic parameter, same result.
To test the shared libraries I took a small program (adapted and corrected from the
configure script of openSsh):
#include <string.h>
#include <openssl/crypto.h>
int main(void) { return(SSLeay() == OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER ? 0 : 1); }
And compiled with:
gcc -o test -pipe -g -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wno-uninitialized -I../include -L.. -R..
test.c -lpam -ldl -lz -lsocket -lnsl -lcrypto
Running it, in all tested variations, results in "Segmentation Fault (core dumped)"
The stack traceback is:
GNU gdb 5.0

I think only #2 abd #3 are significant, gdb is reporting bogus information which
include a path with gcc-3.0.3 which never has existed on this machine. Perhaps all
the information is bogus since I haven't been able to put a breakpoint at the _init()
or frame_dummy() routines, one is not found, the later is in another library not
libcrypto.
