 This example demonstrates how to use already initialised base of
 'bsdsocket.library' in 'ixemul' and resolve real socket, so that
 'AmiSSL' can be fully operational without inlining or gluing to
 TCP/IP stack directly. This has big advantages, cuz you do not
 need to perform hardcore hacking on the program to make it work,
 plus you will be as close to thread-safe model as possible thru
 'ixemul' + HScM'ed(Hard Syscall Mapping) 'pthreads'. 

 Please note 'AmiSSL' itself is not thread-safe! Functions like
 'SSL_write()' or 'SSL_read()' wont allow contexts to be switched,
 however you can improvise and after each call enforce it with
 'pthread_switch_me()' - see bonus dir. in 'pthreads' package -.

 Important! Dont call 'CloseLibrary(SocketBase)' !

 Also important! Always setup your own CTRL_C handler when using
 'AmiSSL', cuz when you quit unexpectedly while it is initialised
 and some callback or other crap is being processed then your
 Miggy might get pranoid and commit suicide, due no code space.
 So, if you want to quit, then remeber to clean up first.

 And some remark. Using 'AmiSSL' from under the 'ixlibrary' gives
 you the ability to interrupt the process anytime you like without
 the need of shielding it first with 'signal()', its because 
 'ixlibrary' takes care of init and cleanup - study this package
 more closely to fully understand.

 And yet a warning! Initialisation from under the 'ixlibrary' with
 'ixemul_errno' clobbers the 'errno' of network functions like:
 'connect()' or accept(), i think that few others too. It will be
 always 0, no matter if function failed or succeded! To solve that
 problem define bases only and initialise in the process.

 SSL test stuff ripped from 'https.c' example file that is a part
 of 'AmiSSL'.
