This patch adds support for the NetWare OS to OpenSSL 0.9.7. After applying this patch, the instructions for building for NetWare can be found in the "INSTALL.NW" file in the root directory. This patch attempts to minimize impact on other platforms through the judicious use of the preprocessor guard "OPENSSL_SYS_NETWARE". It does introduce one new general purpose function "ERR_free_state_table" which we found useful when cleaning up threads.
I have applied the patch to the latest 0.9.7c source and built for both NetWare and Windows. The test suite runs correctly on both platforms with the patch applied. I understand that active development on the 0.9.7 code is limited. These changes, however, have minimal impact on existing code and I hope you will consider them. If the patch is not accepted for 0.9.7, I request that this patch file be added to the "Contributions" page in the same manner as the 0.9.6 NetWare patch. Thank you for your consideration of this work. Note: This is a repeat of a request made in June. The patch file has been updated, however, to address a couple of minor issues discovered when migrating to OpenSSL 0.9.7c.
