The point is of course that doing binary releases on Linux is always a bit of a problem, unless we ship everything as included static libraries, which is a bit nonsensical IMHO for a project like PyPy. Moreover, if openssl 1.0.0 is binary compatible with openssl 0.9.8, then I might rather put the blame on the openssl project for releasing two binary compatible versions with a different (un-cross-linkable) first number. But I will not do so: I guess that they are not supposed to be totally binary compatible, and there are subtle differences. Is there anyone that can (1) make sure the differences don't matter, possibly by looking at how the CPython source evolved; and (2) maybe come up with a way to say "link against openssl either 0.9.8 or 1.0.0" in the binary?
