>Description:
The OpenSSL libraries distributed with NetBSD are not configure to support
threads. They can therefore not be used by multi-threaded applications.

Enabling them does *not* mean that the OpenSSL libraries will depend
on "libpthread". They will only provide a framework to register an
implementation of locking primitives.

>How-To-Repeat:
grep OPENSSL_THREADS /usr/include/openssl/opensslconf.h 

>Fix:
Configure OpenSSL including the "threads" option.
