Licq OpenSSL Support

Licq now supports Secure Socket Layer connections between
clients allowing for fully secure communication of messages, urls,
chat requests...
OpenSSL support will be built automatically if you have openssl 
development packages installed.  To disable openssl support, run configure 
with `--without-openssl'.  To specify paths to OpenSSL libraries or headers
use `--with-openssl-lib=' and `--with-openssl-inc='.

The current code requires your system to have a built-in randomness
source at /dev/urandom (or another location, if you configured
OpenSSL for it at compile time). Systems without such a source will return
an error number 24064064. Code to support EGD and .rnd files will be
included in the next release.
People on Solaris boxes can use solaris kernel module for 
/dev/(u)random.  It can be found at http://www.freshmeat.net.
