     SSL_library_init, OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms,

     registering algorithms

     SSL_library_init() registers the available SSL/TLS ciphers
     and digests.

     OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms() and SSLeay_add_ssl_algorithms()
     are synonyms for SSL_library_init().

     SSL_library_init() must be called before any other action
     takes place.

     SSL_library_init() adds ciphers and digests used directly
     and indirectly by SSL/TLS.

     A typical TLS/SSL application will start with the library
     initialization, and provide readable error messages.

      SSL_load_error_strings();                /* readable error messages */
      SSL_library_init();                      /* initialize library */

     SSL_library_init() always returns "1", so it is safe to
     discard the return value.

NNNNOOOOTTTTEEEESSSS
     OpenSSL 0.9.8o and 1.0.0a and later added SHA2 algorithms to
     SSL_library_init().  Applications which need to use SHA2 in
     earlier versions of OpenSSL should call
     OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() as well.
