It seems that stunnel4 calls SSLeay_add_ssl_algorithms() instead
of SSL_library_init(), which is a define for the later anyway,
and postfix calls OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(), which is also a
define for the later.  So it seems that this isn't going to be
the problem and I'll need to take a deeper look.
