- o The "exported" header files should not use #include "foo.h", but
- #include <foo.h> or even better #include <ssl/foo.h> or
- #include <openssl/foo.h> in order to avoid filename clashes.
-
o ERR_error_string(..., buf) does not know how large buf is,
there should be ERR_error_string_n(..., buf, bufsize)
or similar.
