I was just asking if some of the flags handle OS-specific differences
and if so, it would be nice to know which ones and what they were
doing.  This way platform maintainers of OpenSSL (Cygwin in my case)
would know if they might get into trouble.

But you already answered my question and it sounds like there's nothing
to worry about :)


Thanks,
