Re: (ITS#6221) slapd segfault in SSL_CTX_set_info_callback

Thanks for the encouragement Michael :)

For those who find this in searches to come, I compiled OpenSSL (0.9.8k)
myself and the problem is resolved.  Not sure if this is a bug fixed
between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8k or something weird that IBM did when building
the package, but all is well now.
