I am develop a trading platform now, I must to compile the bitcoin source code by myself,
so, which version of the openssl I can use? Thanks.
At this point, just use 0.9.4.

my other question is, why the bitcoin system don't maintain one correct branch of openssl?
Too large a codebase of mostly obfuscated spaghetti code.
It's going to be replaced with libsecp256k1 (which we do maintain) "soon" (planned since before this issue).

Thank you very much. Can I use 0.9.4 and openssl-0.9.8?

I plan to support more peer-to-peer Internet currency on my trading platform, I guess other p2p currency have the same problem, so I want to use the unified version of openssl to compile all the source code.
