    Issue #17128: Use private version of OpenSSL for 2.7.9 OS X 10.5+ installer. · 92b2b485
    Ned Deily authored
    Among other issues, the Apple-supplied 0.9.7 libs for the 10.5 ABI cannot
    verify newer SHA-256 certs as now used by python.org services.  Document
    in the installer ReadMe some of the certificate management issues that
    users now need to be more concerned with due to PEP 476's enabling cert
    verification by default.  For now, continue to use the Apple-supplied
    0.9.8 libs for the 10.6+ installer since they use Apple private APIs to
    verify certificates using the system- and user-managed CA keychain stores.
