Thus we ought to rely on the system libraries. There are a lot of number theorists using Sagemath. Could one or more consider implementing the functionality of OpenSSL in a re-write? Maybe a Google Summer of Code project? If a subset of the SSL developers are happy to have the code they wrote GPL, then there would be no need to rewrite those bits, if those individuals would relicense the bits they personally wrote. That would mean a rewrite of the bit written by by developers who will not relicense what they wrote.
