The demos/ssl/cli.cpp can complies with ssleay_0.6.6 The reason is that the SSL_CTX_new() have changed in the new version of ssleay/openssl. You can say the cli.cpp is very old, maybe someone should write a new version of cli.cpp which can complies with the new version of ssleay/openssl(0.9.0 or above). And you should have a look at s_client.c in "apps" path. s_client.c can complie with new version of ssleay/openssl.
