Always use buildinf.h, which now includes the mk1mfinf.h data.

- Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4
+ Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4  [xx Jul/Aug/...? 1999]
+
+  *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
+     an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
+     it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
+     or long name.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
+     method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
+     otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
+     no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
+     in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp. By setting
+     RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for private key
+     operations.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
+     [Andy Polyakov]
+
+  *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
+          typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
+     to
+          ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
+     so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
+     The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
+     additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
+     the password callback is called.
+     [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>, with tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
+
+     New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
+
+     Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
+     onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
+     interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
+     pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
+     happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
+     just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
+     this will work.
+
+  *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
+     (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
+     problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
+     To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
+     auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
+     for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
+     [Andy Polyakov]
 
   *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
      delete an unused file.
