--------------------------------------+---------------------------
 When launching a freshly unzipped TBB-3.5-rc1 (only build 1, I think), and
 configuring a bridge in the TorLauncher first run dialogue, I get the
 following log message from tor:

 {{{
 Dec 13 00:42:38.000 [notice] We were built to run on a 64-bit CPU, with
 OpenSSL
  1.0.1 or later, but with a version of OpenSSL that apparently lacks
 accelerated
  support for the NIST P-224 and P-256 groups. Building openssl with such
 support
  (using the enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128 option when configuring it) would
 make
  ECDH much faster.
