I haven't had time to follow this thread closely, but I think I saw a
message from Martin where he explained that the OpenSSL wrapper we
already have is probably covered by US export regulations.  I think it's
a matter of interpretation, but I agree with that interpretation.  So
everyone who distributes Python already needs to do that analysis.

I think it's unlikely we would remove the crypto code we already have,
so I'm all for adding more crypto code that makes the library more
useful.
