 This mandates OpenSSL with ECC support, and will bail out at runtime if
 the requested group isn't available.  Looking at how RedHat screws up
 OpenSSL, this should compile since they don't go as far as to remove the
 NID definitions.

 I for one welcome our new NIST overlords (Though this is less bad than the
 alternatives).
