/* Numeric release version identifier:
* MNNFFPPS: major minor fix patch status
* The status nibble has one of the values 0 for development, 1 to e for betas
* 1 to 14, and f for release. The patch level is exactly that.
* For example:
* 0.9.3-dev 0x00903000
* 0.9.3-beta1 0x00903001
* 0.9.3-beta2-dev 0x00903002
* 0.9.3-beta2 0x00903002 (same as ...beta2-dev)
* 0.9.3 0x0090300f
* 0.9.3a 0x0090301f
* 0.9.4 0x0090400f
* 1.2.3z 0x102031af
*
* For continuity reasons (because 0.9.5 is already out, and is coded
* 0x00905100), between 0.9.5 and 0.9.6 the coding of the patch level
* part is slightly different, by setting the highest bit. This means
* that 0.9.5a looks like this: 0x0090581f. At 0.9.6, we can start
* with 0x0090600S...
*
* (Prior to 0.9.3-dev a different scheme was used: 0.9.2b is 0x0922.)
* (Prior to 0.9.5a beta1, a different scheme was used: MMNNFFRBB for
* major minor fix final patch/beta)

/* The macros below are to be used for shared library (.so, .dll, ...)
* versioning. That kind of versioning works a bit differently between
* operating systems. The most usual scheme is to set a major and a minor
* number, and have the runtime loader check that the major number is equal
* to what it was at application link time, while the minor number has to
* be greater or equal to what it was at application link time. With this
* scheme, the version number is usually part of the file name, like this:
*
* libcrypto.so.0.9
*
* Some unixen also make a softlink with the major verson number only:
*
* libcrypto.so.0

Apply the Tru64 patch from Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> His comments are: 1) Changes all references for `True64' to be `Tru64', which is the correct spelling for the OS name. 2) Makes `alpha-cc' be the same as `alpha164-cc', and adds an `alphaold-cc' entry that is the same as the previous `alpha-cc'. The reason is that most people these days are using the newer compiler, so it should be the default. 3) Adds a bit of commentary to Configure, regarding the name changes of the OS over the years, so it's not so confusing to people that haven't been with the OS for a while. 4) Adds an `alpha-cc-rpath' target (which is *not* selected automatically by Configure under any circumstance) that builds an RPATH into the shared libraries. This is explained in the comment in Configure. It's very very useful for people that want it, and people that don't want it just shouldn't choose that target. 5) Adds the `-pthread' flag as the best way to get POSIX thread support from the newer compiler. 6) Updates the Makefile targets, so that when the `alpha164-cc', `alpha-cc', or `alpha-cc-rpath' target is what Configure is set to use, it uses a Makefile target that includes the `-msym' option when building the shared library. This is a performance enhancement. 7) Updates `config' so that if it detects you're running version 4 or 5 of the OS, it automatically selects `alpha-cc', but uses `alphaold-cc' for versions 1-3 of the OS. 8) Updates the comment in opensslv.h, fixing both the OS name typo and adding a reference to IRIX 6.x, since the shared library semantics are virtually identical there.

* On Tru64 and IRIX 6.x it works a little bit differently. There, the
* shared library version is stored in the file, and is actually a series
* of versions, separated by colons. The rightmost version present in the
* library when linking an application is stored in the application to be
* matched at run time. When the application is run, a check is done to
* see if the library version stored in the application matches any of the
* versions in the version string of the library itself.
* This version string can be constructed in any way, depending on what
* kind of matching is desired. However, to implement the same scheme as
* the one used in the other unixen, all compatible versions, from lowest
* to highest, should be part of the string. Consecutive builds would
* give the following versions strings:
*
* 3.0
* 3.0:3.1
* 3.0:3.1:3.2
* 4.0
* 4.0:4.1
*
* Notice how version 4 is completely incompatible with version, and
* therefore give the breach you can see.
*
* There may be other schemes as well that I haven't yet discovered.
*
* So, here's the way it works here: first of all, the library version
* number doesn't need at all to match the overall OpenSSL version.
* However, it's nice and more understandable if it actually does.
* The current library version is stored in the macro SHLIB_VERSION_NUMBER,
* which is just a piece of text in the format "M.m.e" (Major, minor, edit).

* For the sake of Tru64, IRIX, and any other OS that behaves in similar ways,
* we need to keep a history of version numbers, which is done in the
* macro SHLIB_VERSION_HISTORY. The numbers are separated by colons and
* should only keep the versions that are binary compatible with the current.
