Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.8 [xx XXX 2002]
+ *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
+ dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
+ found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
+ current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
+ directory engines/.
+ The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
+ the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
+ Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
+ /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
+ engines, but that can be overriden with the environment
+ variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
+ [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
+
*) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
