uiproject.fbp. It generates uibase.cpp and uibase.h, which define base
classes that do the rote work of constructing all the UI elements.
-The release is built with GCC and then "strip bitcoin.exe" to strip the debug
-symbols, which reduces the executable size by about 90%.

+This release was built with a Visual C++ 10.0 toolchain (nmake); previous

OpenSSL
-------
-If you want to exclude unused optional algorithms, a few patches are required.
-(instructions for OpenSSL v0.9.8k)
-
-Edit engines\e_gmp.c and engines\e_capi.c and add this #ifndef around
-the openssl/rsa.h include:
- #ifndef OPENSSL_NO_RSA
- #include <openssl/rsa.h>
- #endif
-
-Edit ms\mingw32.bat and replace the Configure line's parameters with this
-no-everything list. You have to put this in the batch file because batch
-files can't take more than nine command line parameters.
- perl Configure mingw threads no-rc2 no-rc4 no-rc5 no-idea no-des no-bf no-cast no-aes no-camellia no-seed no-rsa no-dh
-
-Also REM out the following line in ms\mingw32.bat after the mingw32-make
-line. The build fails after it's already finished building libeay32, which
-is all we care about, but the failure aborts the script before it runs
-dllwrap to generate libeay32.dll.
