[Bug 940230] [NEW] openssl on 64bit is much slower than before

[Jauder Ho]

Public bug reported:

Posting output of openssl speed on precise alpha and 10.04. Some quick
googling seems to indicate issues with 64bit asm vs. the C version
(might be a good idea to disable 64bit asm). This is on a processor
without AES-NI (which is still very common).
