This belongs in openssl-users and not openssl-dev.

The CMS support has been now added to 0.9.8 too but you need a recent snapshot
and have to explicitly enable support at compile time with "enable-cms".

Some preliminary documentation of the API is also available. It is a bit ropey
and it only for 0.9.9 but the API is largely compatible between the two
versions.

See for example:
