+   Definitions of OPENSSL_EXPORT and OPENSSL_IMPORT, to define and declare

+   more complicated to use.  Basically, for any library that exports some
+   global variables, the following code must be present in the header file

+
+   #ifdef SOME_BUILD_FLAG_MACRO
+   # undef OPENSSL_EXTERN
+   # define OPENSSL_EXTERN OPENSSL_EXPORT
+   #endif
+
+   The default is to have OPENSSL_EXPORT, OPENSSL_IMPORT and OPENSSL_GLOBAL
+   have some generally sensible values, and for OPENSSL_EXTERN to have the
+   value OPENSSL_IMPORT.
