not really important, just in case somebody else has the
same trouble.
compiling 4.3.0 with openssl < 0.96 leads to an undefined
reference to ERR_error_string_n, here is the small fix.

Please use openssl 0.96 and higher, 0.95 has a number of security issues and should not be used.
 [2003-01-02 12:36 UTC] wez@php.net 
There are security issues with older versions of OpenSSL, so we will not support this in our distribution, in order to encourage people to run with more secure systems.
As a side effect, we don't have to clutter up the code with #ifdefs, making it more maintainable for us in the long run.
 [2003-01-02 14:35 UTC] bob at xware dot it 
this comes when generating .rpm for old (but still supported) redhat distributions, where security patches are applied
on original revisions of the libraries.
anyway, as i said, it's not a problem. just to let you know,
the configure (acinclude.m4 ?) checks for >= 0.95.

thanks!
