NB: X509_STORE_CTX's use of "ex_data" support was actually misimplemented
(initialisation by "memset" won't/can't/doesn't work). This fixes that but
requires that X509_STORE_CTX_init() be able to handle errors - so its
prototype has been changed to return 'int' rather than 'void'. All uses of
that function throughout the source code have been tracked down and
adjusted.
setting stack (actually, array) values in ex_data. So only increment the
global counters if the underlying CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() call succeeds.
This change doesn't make "ex_data" right (see the comment at the head of
ex_data.c to know why), but at least makes the source code marginally less
frustrating.
and make all files the depend on it include it without prefixing it
with openssl/.
This means that all Makefiles will have $(TOP) as one of the include
directories.
sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
opensslconf.h.
I've checked fairly well that nothing breaks with this (apart from
external software that will adapt if they have used something like
NO_KRB5), but I can't guarantee it completely, so a review of this
change would be a good thing.

record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will write a
separate record, which will be read separately by the programs trying
to read from it. This can be very confusing.
The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer text
until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a line at a
time, so every record written will be an actual line, not chunks of
lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've seen it once) several
lines in one record. Voila, BIO_f_linebuffer() is born.
Since we're so close to release time, I'm making this VMS-only for
now, just to make sure no code is needlessly broken by this. After
the release, this BIO method will be enabled on all other platforms as
well.
handle an externally provided "static" buffer as well a a dynamic
buffer. The "static" buffer is filled first, but if overflowed, the
dynamic buffer is used instead, being allocated somewhere i the heap.
This combines the benefits of putting the output in a preallocated
buffer (on the stack, for example) and in a buffer that grows
somewhere in the heap.
If some other thread deletes the BIO that one thread needs for
BIO_write, then there's a lot of trouble anyway; there's
nothing special about calling the callback.
Returning -1 for an attempt to read from an empty buffer is empty is
not an error that should be signalled via the error queue, it's a
'retry read' condition and is signalled as such.
