pointers at the end of the structure.

by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
LDAP server.

NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
promoted strongly.  The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
binary backward compatibility.

make update done.

to have the full extension information, so residual shared libraries
can be removed so the applications and test programs do not get linked
against them by mistake...

  - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
    if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
    to libcrypto.so.0.9.7.  There is extended info in Configure for
    that.

  - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.

  - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.

  - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
    static ones.

Actually, it's a feature that it goes looking at environment
variables.  It's just a pity that it's at the cost of the error
checking...  I'll see if I can come up with a better interface for
this.

thus the condition '!BIO_sock_init()' doesn't make sense.

so I've regenerated the error numbers and strings for the DSO functions.

to make them...

These are now processed inside DSO_ctrl() itself.

commands are common to all DSO_METHODs, hence handle them at the top.
