Hello,

OpenSSL engine command allows user to specify cryptographic module name 
at any position.
For instance README.ENGINE recommend following:
   openssl engine dynamic \
     -pre SO_PATH:/lib/libfoo.so \
   ....

The master branch (future 1.1) requires engine names to be specified 
after all options. This is regression introduced by new common " 
option-parsing".

Also new summary lack information for engine name as command line argument.


Regards,
Roumen Petrov
