Further update...
The "genrsa" freeze that occurs with openssl 0.9.2b, also occurs with the
lastest snapshot of openssl, which is SNAP-19990402. In addition, also with
both openssl 0.9.2b and with SNAP-19990402, "make test" goes all the way to
the "rsa_oaep_test" without errors, then freezes at that RSA test.
This occurs on ix86 computers running NetBSD version 1.3K (> 1.3.3).
Ironically, on the same computers running the older NetBSD version 1.3.3,
genrsa works great and does not freeze. In addition, when one moves the
openssl binary compiled under NetBSD 1.3.3 to a NetBSD 1.3K machine, then
that genrsa still works on 1.3K. While, when one moves the openssl binary
compiled under NetBSD 1.3K to a NetBSD 1.3.3 machine, then that genrsa still
freezes under NetBSD 1.3.3.
So there is something different between NetBSD 1.3K and the older NetBSD
1.3.3 that causes a faulty build of openssl under 1.3K and a successful
build under 1.3.3. A comparison between the two builds would indicate
no differences from "config", so the difference would appear to be at
the compile level.
Thanks in advance again. Sincerely, Alicia.
