+Logical names:
+==============
+
+There are a few things that can't currently be given through the command
+line. Instead, logical names are used.
+
+Currently, the logical names supported are:
+
+ OPENSSL_NO_ASM with value YES, the assembler parts of OpenSSL will
+ not be used. Instead, plain C implementations are
+ used. This is good to try if something doesn't work.
+ OPENSSL_NO_'alg' with value YES, the corresponding crypto algorithm
+ will not be implemented. Supported algorithms to
+ do this with are: RSA, DSA, DH, MD2, MD5, RIPEMD,
+ SHA, DES, MDC2, CR2, RC4, RC5, IDEA, BF, CAST, HMAC,
+ SSL2. So, for example, having the logical name
+ OPENSSL_NO_RSA with the value YES means that the
+ LIBCRYPTO.OLB library will not contain an RSA
+ implementation.

- compiling the [.asm]vms.mar file in the BN (bignum) part of
- the crypto library. These can be safely ignored.
