A run on buildfarm member "grebe" just completed successfully, now
with openssl support, so I gotta say "thumbs up!"

I don't have gettext libraries installed, so that won't get tested
right away. SSL is an addition I'd quite like. The list of "nice to
try" would be gettext, ldap, Kerberos; I don't think I can promise all
those during this particular cycle, but I'd certainly be keen on
adding them, ultimately.

I also just verified that readline is playing well, too. Sweet!
(The difficulties of AIX + readline were the initiator of a fair bit
of change to linking of libs and such, so it's particularly pleasing
that this is working fine :-))
