[Pkg-openssl-devel] Bug#699692: Bug#699692: "Illegal instruction" when installing (creating certificate) with Wheezy's version 1.0.1c-4 of openssl on a system with Cyrix MII / IBM 6x86

[Hans-Juergen Mauser]

Hello Kurt,

thanks for your support and for providing the packages! This made 
testing for me very easy - and I can tell you that it works perfectly.

Setting the environment variable was NOT a full workaround as there are 
processes like postgresql which use the libssl internally and from a 
non-interactive shell, which prevented postgresql even from starting as 
it calculates a key at each startup.

By the way, the internal capability flags have the following values:

OPENSSL_ia32cap_P[0] = 0x0080A535 (same as before)
OPENSSL_ia32cap_P[1] = 0x0

Was the value of OPENSSL_ia32cap_P[1] a "random" value previously due to 
wrong assumptions when reading?

Best regards,

Hans-Juergen Mauser
