[Bug 1001424] [NEW] openssl without Intel AES-NI engine support

[f00fbug]

Public bug reported:

Hi

testing hardware encryption acceleration for an ongoing project  I found
out that the shipped openssl version is shipped without Intel AES-NI
engine support.

openssl engine
(rsax) RSAX engine support
(dynamic) Dynamic engine loading support

whereas an Intel AES-NI enabled openssl will show an additional
(aesni) Intel AES-NI engine

However as the shipped kernel offer hardware support via aesni_intel it
will be really great if Intel AES-NI engine support can be enabled in
openssl too.

1. )System: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
Release: 12.04

2.) openssl: Installed: 1.0.1-4ubuntu5

3.) Please enable support for Intel AES-NI engine in openssl
