    VMS: mitigate for the C++ compiler that doesn't understand certain pragmas
    
    This only affects __DECC_INCLUDE_EPILOGUE.H and __DECC_INCLUDE_PROLOGUE.H,
    which are used automatically by HP and VSI C/C++ compilers.

  Changes between 1.1.1d and 1.1.1e [xx XXX xxxx]
 
+  *) [VMS only] The header files that the VMS compilers include automatically,
+     __DECC_INCLUDE_PROLOGUE.H and __DECC_INCLUDE_EPILOGUE.H, use pragmas that
+     the C++ compiler doesn't understand.  This is a shortcoming in the
+     compiler, but can be worked around with __cplusplus guards.
+
+     C++ applications that use OpenSSL libraries must be compiled using the
+     qualifier '/NAMES=(AS_IS,SHORTENED)' to be able to use all the OpenSSL
+     functions.  Otherwise, only functions with symbols of less than 31
+     characters can be used, as the linker will not be able to successfully
+     resolve symbols with longer names.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
   *) X509 certificates signed using SHA1 are no longer allowed at security
      level 1 and above.
      In TLS/SSL the default security level is 1. It can be set either
