Reinstate the check for invalid length BIT STRINGS,
which was effectively bypassed in the ASN1 changed.

Make -nameopt work in req and add support for -reqopt

GNU ld comes first, checking the usage of collect2 gives that instead of
GNU ld, even if GNU ld would be the one that would get used if we link using
gcc.  It's much better, apparently, to ask gcc directly what the path to
GNU ld is (provided it's there at all and gcc knows about it), and ask
the result if it's a GNU or not.  The bonus is that our GNU ld detection
mechanism got shorter and easier to understand...

Besides, our sparcv9 targets currently generate sparcv8 code, I'm told.

visible qhen building a shared library, however...

EC_GROUP_new_by_nid() should be enough.  This avoids a lot of
redundancy.

become rather large.  This becomes a problem when the default 1024
character large buffer that WRITE uses isn't enough.  WRITE/SYMBOL
uses a 2048 byte large buffer instead.

needed, call 'pod2man' directly if this works

That will make the test go through even if DH (or in some cases ECDH) aren't
built into OpenSSL.

typical output from a program in C.
PR: 222

Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.

This wasn't visible before becuse ASN1_get_object() used
to read past the length of the supplied buffer.
