win32 crash in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_file(m_app_ctx, certpath, SSL_FILETYPE_PEM)

[Joshua Teitelbaum]

Hello there openssl users.
I recently compiled and built openssl for a VC-WIN32 target, however I'm running into problems.
I compiled static (release mode default) and did nmake -f ms\nt.mak (vc2003).
I then successfully linked against the openssl libs, only to find that
SSL_CTX_use_certificate_file(m_app_ctx, certpath, SSL_FILETYPE_PEM)  causes a crash.
My app calls this, but then this function (or some func thereunder  I believe), somehow requests a HUGE amount data to be malloced, thus causing a fatal exception.
Has anyone else experienced this problem, and gotten through it?
Sorry if this is a dup of a known issue.
