Hi Richard. thanks for your reply. In my experiments so far, I have seen the messages about size_t and unsigned long. This is the one that worried me some.
How can I watch for news about this work?

The absolutely biggest problem is that size_t is 64 bits while unsigned long is 32 bits. This leads to a ton of warnings/errors concerning size differences when OpenSSL uses unsigned long, unsigned int or int for things that should really be size_t. There's a branch where work on this is done, although very slowly (at least for the moment). If I didn't have to spend time chasing down finances to survive, that would be one of those things I'd work on, as it also concerns a favorite O/S of mine, VMS. ----- Please consider sponsoring my work on free software.
