I'll look at the snapshot later today, but if the OpenSSL configure code
hasn't changed much, then basically the question you can pose to
yourself is "Can we merge the Linux and BSD x86 entries?" The same
types of differences in platforms are inherent between the *BSDs, even
if we restrict ourselves to just x86.
What would be worthwhile would be additional shortcuts for choosing the
assembly code based on the compiler, processor, and library format, e.g.
x86-gcc-elf, sparc64-gcc-elf, sparc64-cc-elf, etc. That would simplify
many of the existing configurations in the Configure script.
