Now that there's tcp desegmentation support, this wouldn't be too hard
for the typical RSA case, but the conflict between the openssl license
and the GPL may be a harder issue to resolve (in effect prohibiting
linking a GPL'd app (e.g., ethereal, tethereal) against the OpenSSL
libraries on OSs that don't include OpenSSL as part of the base system).
FYI, Eric's ssldump license is arguably incompatible for the same reason
(advertising clause).

Opinions vary widely on how big a deal this license issue really is.
