We need to explore oSSL and its speed, and also it's availability.

If it is there, but slower, then we have it in by default, and implement a
'HAVE_GMP', that will add the -lgmp to LDLFAGS and change the code used in
the format.  I have a feeling GMP will be faster than oSSL, at least older
oSSL, but I 'could' be wrong.  Torbjorn codes some pretty good stuff, for a
general purpose math lib.
