Note for ES since you've not been on IM in some time by Senor Barborito 02/20/2003, 6:42pm PST
Figured out WTF was wrong with both OpenSSL 0.9.7 (now 7a as of last night's bug).

Turns out OpenBSD 3.2 ships with a fairly outdated version of GNU's as (GOD FUCKING DAMNIT THEO YOUR TESTICLES WILL BE MOUNTED ON MY WALL AS A TROPHY FOR THIS).

Unfortunately install from source of the entire latest version of the binutils package off gnu.org - which itself requires a significant amount of install-script hand-tuning to get working on OpenBSD - does not appear to be solving the problem, OpenSSL's FAQ's claims aside (damn them).

I am 99% sure this is also the source of the errors with install-from-source with PostgreSQL that we were seeing. While it's possible to just circumvent the problem for now and compile OpenSSL --no-asm, I'd like to try and knock both these problems out of the picture at once (esp. the Postgre one) but I've run into what appears to be a solid wall aside of recompiling the entire system from a fresh CVS of the --stable source, which I obviously would rather not do with a live system.

Give me a buzz, my forehead's getting sore here and I could use a suggestion or two.
