 Note that debug and release libraries are NOT interchangeable.  If you
 built OpenSSL with /MD your application must use /MD and cannot use /MDd.
 
+As per 0.9.8 the above limitation is eliminated for .DLLs. OpenSSL
+.DLLs compiled with some specific run-time option [we recommend the
+default /MD] can be deployed with application compiled with different
+option or even different compiler. But there is a catch! Instead of
+re-compiling OpenSSL toolkit, as you would have to with prior versions,
+you have to compile small C snippet with compiler and/or options of
+your choice. The snippet gets installed as
+<install-root>/include/openssl/applink.c and should be either added to
+your project or simply #include-d in one [and only one] of your source
+files. Failure to do either manifests itself as fatal "no
+OPENSSL_Applink" error.
