RE: issue with gcc version 3.0 20010418 (prerelease) on x86/redhat 6. 2 w/ openssl 0.9.6a

["Neulinger, Nathan" <nneul at umr dot edu>]

crypto/pem/pem_lib.c

When compiled with snapshot, fails to read key. When compiled with old gcc,
it works fine.

If I build all of 0.9.6a with snapshot, and then adjust path and build
pem_lib.c with old gcc (either 2.91.66 or 2.96.20000727), it works.

I attached the relevant files. Hope this helps diagnostics. .old is from
2.91, .new is from 3.0 snapshot.

To reproduce:

	openssl genrsa -des3 -out blah.key 1024
		type any password
	openssl rsa -in blah.key

if it works, it will prompt for password, if it fails, it will say unable to
load key. 

I am not very familiar with the internals of openssl/etc, so really have no
idea what routine/etc. the problem might be in.
