OpenSSL binary ("openssl"). The libraries will be built in the top-level

If "make" fails, please report the problem to <openssl-bugs@openssl.org>
(note that your message will be forwarded to a public mailing list).
Include the output of "make report" in your message.

output of "make report" in your message.
[If you encounter assembler error messages, try the "no-asm"
configuration option as an immediate fix.]
