Updated: openssl-0.9.7g-1, openssl-devel-0.9.7g-1


I've updated the version of OpenSSL to 0.9.7g-1.  This also includes the
openssl-devel package.

This is a upstream bug fix update.  The Cygwin version has a minor tweak
applied which was necessary to resolve a build conflict.  The patch is
already sent upstream.


Official release message:

  The OpenSSL project team is pleased to announce the release of
  version 0.9.7g of our open source toolkit for SSL/TLS.  This new
  OpenSSL version is mainly a bugfix release and incorporates changes
  and bugfixes to the toolkit, but is also contains the new processing
