- OPENSSL_INIT_start_library(OPENSSL_INIT_NO_ADD_ALL_CIPHERS

+The B<settings> parameter to OPENSSL_init_crypto() may be used to provide
+optional settings values to an option. Currently the only option this
applies to is OPENSSL_INIT_LOAD_CONFIG. This provides the optional
OPENSSL_INIT_SET_CONF_FILENAME parameter to provide a filename to load
configuration from. If no filename is provided then the system default
application and a library it depends on both use OpenSSL, and the library
deinitialises it before the application has finished using it.
+Once OPENSSL_cleanup() has been called the library cannot be reinitialised.

The OPENSSL_atexit() function enables the registration of a
function to be called during OPENSSL_cleanup(). Stop handlers are
called after deinitialisation of resources local to a thread, but before other
