I installed the 0.9.6e openssl port to overwrite base
(-DOPENSSL_OVERWRITE_BASE)
and relinked my critical apps. I added:

NO_OPENSSL= true

to /etc/make.conf

Now when I want to update to a patched RELENG_4_6, and use the base openssl,
should I:

1) deinstall the port
2) remove make.conf declaration
3) cvsup/make world
4) recompile my third party apps again, because /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.3 and
/usr/lib/libssl.so.3 are not used by the base openssl

I'm only a tad confused with number 4. Was the .2 -> .3 change made just
within
the port or within openssl itself? Thanks!
