FYI:

It appears that openssl-0.9.7 will have the engine stuff by default.

However, at least some of the API has changed, so compilation fails:

i386-linux-gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I../../curl-7.9.7/include -I../lib -I../../curl-7.9.7/lib -g -O2 -c ../../curl-7.9.7/lib/ssluse.c -Wp,-MD,.deps/ssluse.TPlo -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/ssluse.lo
../../curl-7.9.7/lib/ssluse.c: In function `cert_stuff':
../../curl-7.9.7/lib/ssluse.c:291: warning: passing arg 3 of `ENGINE_load_private_key' from incompatible pointer type
../../curl-7.9.7/lib/ssluse.c:291: too few arguments to function `ENGINE_load_private_key'

The new API, for instance:

/* API functions to load public/private keys */
        
EVP_PKEY *ENGINE_load_private_key(ENGINE *e, const char *key_id,
        UI_METHOD *ui_method, void *callback_data)

Cheers,
mrc
