Crypto failure Issues

Did you compile both openssl and bind or are you using a prebuilt binary?

There are (apparently) problems with OpenSSL 1.0.2 on the 32 bit Solaris
10 platform.  This was discussed on the openssl-users mailing list
a few months ago.  The "fix" was building with an openssl 1.0.1
version on that platform.  I would try that myself.
