1 - If by threading change, you mean the fact that Newsbin has to supply a
bunch of mutexes to OpenSSL (which did bite me on the ass). It's already
implementing that change internally.   OpenSSL calls up and I then generate the
N mutexes it requests

2 -

The fix that makes it work is completely unrelated to SSL version.  I think the
real question is, how does enabling ptrace security interfere with OpenSSL
under wine. Is wine using ptrace to patch the application in memory or monitor
what it's doing? Is it used to implement SEH (structured exception handling)
for instance?  

In a nutshell, disabling ptrace security allows OpenSSL to work. That suggests
that ptrace is being used to do something. I don't know anything about wine
internals so I can't guess what.  Why only SSL too? Why do normal TCP
connections work but, SSL connections don't?
