XNC we have to support for long term stable liability..

There are still some MAJOR issues that need to be addressed before any "development" and "advancement" can move forward.

These builds I am producing (and the updated source code) are simply a 'minor update' for checkpoints in the blockchain, to patch OpenSSL issues (old client uses VERY old SSL version that is vulnerable to several attacks), as well as update the source to compensate for the newer OpenSSL versions that tightened the ECDSA handlers (in a nutshell) and can cause consensus forks in the blockchain. The discovery and subsequent alert that made it to Bitcoin and Litecoin via Gregory Maxwell (BTC developer) regarding the OpenSSL issues never was brought up here, but this client is definitely susceptible to those issues. As such, I incorporated the patches into these builds from BTC (and LTC).

Users are advised that if their systems have updated and they are linking dynamically to their OpenSSL libraries, that they can and will cause consensus forks in the chain due to the new OpenSSL verifications. This codebase will take care of that.

It will also contain several changes to the build files to hopefully make it a little more straightforward to build.
