Due to an increasing number of clashes between modern OpenSSL and
...
libdes (which is still used out there) or other des implementations,
the OpenSSL DES functions are renamed to begin with DES_ instead of
des_. Compatibility routines are provided and declared by including
openssl/des_old.h. Those declarations are the same as were in des.h
when the OpenSSL project started, which is exactly how libdes looked
at that time, and hopefully still looks today.
The compatibility functions will be removed in some future release, at
the latest in version 1.0.

Also change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0
if the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then the
client will at least see that alert.

From: "Chris D. Peterson" <cpeterson@aventail.com>
Subject: Implementation Issues with OpenSSL
To: openssl-users@openssl.org
Date: Wed, 22 Aug 2001 16:13:17 -0700
The patch included in the original post may improve the internal session
list handling (and is therefore worth a seperate investigation).
No change to the list handling will however solve the problems of incorrect
SSL_SESSION_free() calls. The session list is only one possible point of
failure, dangling pointers would also occur for SSL object currently
using the session. The correct solution is to only use SSL_SESSION_free()
when applicable!
