=head1 DESCRIPTION
OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER is a numeric release version identifier:
MMNNFFPPS: major minor fix patch status
The status nibble has one of the values 0 for development, 1 to e for betas
1 to 14, and f for release.
for example
0x000906000 == 0.9.6 dev
0x000906023 == 0.9.6b beta 3
0x00090605f == 0.9.6e release
Versions prior to 0.9.3 have identifiers E<lt> 0x0930.
Versions between 0.9.3 and 0.9.5 had a version identifier with this
interpretation:
MMNNFFRBB major minor fix final beta/patch

0x000904100 == 0.9.4 release
0x000905000 == 0.9.5 dev
Versions prior to 0.9.3 have identifiers E<lt> 0x0930.
Version 0.9.5a had an interrim interpretation that is like the current one,
except the patch level got the highest bit set, to keep continuity. The
number was therefore 0x0090581f.
For backward compatibility, SSLEAY_VERSION_NUMBER is also defined.
SSLeay() returns this number. The return value can be compared to the
macro to make sure that the correct version of the library has been
loaded, especially when using DLLs on Windows systems.
SSLeay_version() returns different strings depending on B<t>:
=over 4
=item SSLEAY_VERSION
The text variant of the version number and the release date. For example,
"OpenSSL 0.9.5a 1 Apr 2000".
=item SSLEAY_CFLAGS
The flags given to the C compiler when compiling OpenSSL are returned in a
string.
=item SSLEAY_PLATFORM
The platform name used when OpenSSL was configured is returned.
=back
If the data request isn't available, a text saying that the information is
not available is returned.
For an unknown B<t>, the text "not available" is returned.
=head1 RETURN VALUE
The version number.
