... which means "truly a lot of places", and we'll end up maintaining that
code for quite a long time...

OTOH, 0.9.8 and 1.0.0 will be discontinued end of this year, so we should
see vendor upgrades.

Or, as Steffan remarked, just use PolarSSL - which is its own can of worms,
but at least, this functionality is there nicely.  If you have 1.3, that is,
so in the 2.3 release train, it won't work before 2.3.10 (argh on all
crypto libraries...)
