... and I spoke (typed) too fast. The User Guide discussion of iOS is
way out of date. You'll find some relevant info for iOS 7.1, and 8.1 at:

  http://openssl.com/testing/validation-2.0/platforms/ios-7.1/
  http://openssl.com/testing/validation-2.0/platforms/ios-8.1/

I'll get around to updating the User Guide one of these days...
