That is one of the things the patch enables.  Actually the reason I
started looking at an OpenSSL import in the first place was due to my
initial pain with loading the opensc engine :-).

It should actually be pretty simple to enable DSO support in
[56]-STABLE, but I prefer to wait with that after the 0.9.8b import
has settled in -CURRENT.  The attached _untested_ patch (which can
also be found at
http://people.freebsd.org/~simon/patches/openssl-DSO-6STABLE.patch )
should do the trick.
