I have read the discussion. If I understood, but Tobias knows better, 
gb.openssl needs a function that is officially present in OpenSSL >= 
1.0. But apparently on some Debian systems, OpenSSL has been patched to 
have this function in versions lower than 1.0.

@Tobias: you can replace a test on the openssl version by a test on the 
availability of a function in a library. 'autoconf' allows that, it just 
a matter of remembering how. :-)
