I note that for openssl-0.9.6b, the recommendation for people with alpha-dec-osf platform is to use the following to circumvent virtual memory problems.

make DIRS=crypto SDIRS=sha "`grep '^CFLAG=' Makefile.ssl | \ sed -e 's/ -O[0-9] / -O0 /'`"
rm `ls crypto/*.o crypto/sha/*.o | grep -v 'sha_dgst\.o'`
make

This works fine by replacing the CFLAG -O4 from ./config with -O0

CFLAG =-DDSO_DLFCN -DHAVE_DLFCN_H -std1 -tune host -O4 -readonly_strings

however in 0.9.7, the corresponding CFLAG listing from ./config is as follows

CFLAG =-DOPENSSL_THREADS -pthread -DDSO_DLFCN -DHAVE_DLFCN_H -DOPENSSL_NO_KRB5 -std1 -tune host -fast -readonly_strings

and so the substitution doesn't work ( no -O[0-9] ).

As I do not have the skill (guts) to modify the Configure file in 0.9.7, can anyone help out by advising what string is required in the make for crypto/sha to enable make to work for 0.9.7? I guessed "-fast" needs to be replaced, but am not sure what parameter to use for zero optimisation.

Thanks and regards
