[ntp:questions] query on ntp-keygen & openssl version

Hello,

I could see that ntp-keygen is checking the Openssl version against the 
 macro OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER which is 0x0090704fL and will exit if not 
matched.

Is there any functionality which will not work if a different openssl 
version is used ? Is it even true with a higher version of openssl 
library? Is there any know compatibility issues between different 
Openssl library versions?  Please provide some inputs on why an exit is 
triggered in case of version mismatch.

Thanks in advance

Regards,
Sajitha
