#ifdef OPENSSL_OLD_VERSION
#define DES_set_key          des_set_key
#define DES_key_sched        des_key_sched
#define DES_ncbc_encrypt     des_ncbc_encrypt
#define DES_ede3_cbc_encrypt des_ede3_cbc_encrypt
#define DES_cblock           des_cblock
#endif

problem than it is. Yes it requires that openssl
apps do a bit more work, but it isn't that much
and it makes some things possible that just weren't
before this change.
