Comment (by kencu):

 Next thing to ponder is whether we will ever be in a situation where we
 need openssl to build legacysupport, which would generate a circular dep.
 Both are fairly core ports...

 I don't think so. I have tried very hard to make sure that legacysupport
 remained as clean and unencumbered as possible.

 We'll just have to make sure going forward that it never needs openssl to
 build.

 Or -- a bit of adjustment with the patch, and is would be Tiger-friendly.
 I think legacysupport is easier, and we'll keep the patch adjustment in
 our pocket, as it will never be upstreamed I think. I just don't see them
 moving things around for Tiger at this point in the game, and openssl 3.0
 is just about to come out -- it's either RC2 or RC3 now -- they have
 enough on their plates.
