Log Message:
Don't build and install openssl with IDEA, MDC2, or RC5 support.

According to README, "RSA Security holds software patents on the
RC5 algorithm.  If you intend to use this cipher, you must contact
RSA Security for licensing conditions." And "The IDEA algorithm is
patented by Ascom ... They should be contacted if that algorithm
is to be used." The openssl FAQ says "For patent reasons, support
for IDEA, RC5 and MDC2 is disabled in this [Red Hat Linux] version."
The FAQ lists patent numbers and expiry dates of US patents:
MDC-2: 4,908,861 13/03/2007
IDEA:  5,214,703 25/05/2010
RC5:   5,724,428 03/03/2015

Now fee-based-commercial-use ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES is not needed.
