[Bug 1440] New: OpenSSL engine support should be enabled by default
https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1440

Summary: OpenSSL engine support should be enabled by default
Classification: Unclassified
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 4.7p1
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P3
Component: Build system
AssignedTo: bitbucket@mindrot.org
ReportedBy: openssh-bugs@lister.dnsalias.net


OpenSSH provides a --with-ssl-engine configure option to enable
OpenSSL's hardware crypto support. The default is not to enable it. I
don't see any reason not to enable it; it has no effect if no hardware
crypto devices are available. I believe the default should be to enable
it, and I even don't think it would be any loss to remove the configure
option altogether (i.e. to always enable it).
