Title:
  Enable optimized 64bit elliptic curve code contributed by Google

Status in “openssl” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “openssl” source package in Precise:
  Confirmed
Status in “openssl” source package in Quantal:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This is to turn on the code contributed by Google for optimized 64bit
  implementations of elliptic curves.

  From the OpenSSL changelog, http://www.openssl.org/news/changelog.html

  Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
       line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
       "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:

  So it really is as simple as enabling an additional compile flag.
