  Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2
 
+  *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
+     on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
+     OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
+     for linking it into DSOs.
+     [Ralf S. Engelschall]
+
   *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
      Fixed.
      [Ben Laurie]
