"Proper" means "compiles and passes test." Versioning is broken (I think).

COFF and a.out targets [similar to ELF targets]. You might notice some
rudementary support for shared mingw builds under cygwin. It works (it
produces cryptoeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll with everything exported by
name), but it's primarily for testing/debugging purposes, at least for
now...

sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
opensslconf.h.

external software that will adapt if they have used something like
