+  *) Added support for auto-initialisation and de-initialisation of the library.
+     OpenSSL no longer requires explicit init or deinit routines to be called,
+     except in certain circumstances. See the
+     OPENSSL_INIT_crypto_library_start() and OPENSSL_INIT_ssl_library_start()
+     man pages for further information.
+     [Matt Caswell]
