libssl.so symbol missing, openssl 1.0.0e

[Sebastian Freundt]

The libssl as provided by libssl1.0.0_1.0.0e-2ubuntu4_amd64.deb is lacking the symbol: `ssl_verify_cert_chain'.
Software depending on that symbol cannot be built.

1) 11.10
2) 1.0.0e-2ubuntu4

Steps to reproduce:
cat <<EOF | gcc -x c - -lssl
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
int
main()
{
 void *s = 0;
 void *sk = 0;
 return ssl_verify_cert_chain(s, sk) <= 0 ? 1 : 0;
}
EOF

Yields:
test.c:(.text+0x2c): undefined reference to `ssl_verify_cert_chain'

The same happens in the debian package, reported as #653235

Comment from the Debian maintainer:

"ssl_verify_cert_chain is not and never was a public symbol,
it's in the "ssl_locl.h" file, which contains internal
functions.

Fix the software instead."

Setting this report to "Won't Fix".
