Note that it doesn't necessarily mean that there is nothing one can do in openssl code. On the contrary there is. It's possible to ensure that relocation problem *never* occurs. However! It should *not* discourage people from using -Bsymbolic. I mean -Bsymbolic is not just a cure for this particular problem, it's The Right Thing(tm) to do, which happens to fix this particular problem too. As for the "contrary." I have applied fix to development branch, http://cvs.openssl.org/chngview?cn=14547 and am closing this ticket. It also should fix a problem with outdated gnu assembler failing to compile the module in question. The fix can be backported to 0.9.8 if more people suffer.
