OpenSSL 0.9.7 uses 0xFE000000 as base address.  For some reason which
is entirely beyond me, the OpenSSL developers chose 0x61000000 (OUCH!)
as base address for 0.9.8, which is especially funny because this base
address is *only* used for the Cygwin build.  I vetoed the address and
let it change to 0x63000000 for 0.9.8.
