[openssl.org #1973] [PATCH 11/14] Ensure 'make links' gets all headers correctly.

[Bernhard Rosenkränzer via RT]

This would add e_os.h to the openssl header files which includes details
which are not part of the public interface and we don't really want to
do this because we can't then
change anything in there that would break compatibility in future.

Why do you want to make this header file public?

I don't,  I wasn't aware of that side affect.

At some point openssl was failing to build in a cross compile environment
because it was not finding this internal header.  This change fixed it.

It's probably safe to assume it's fixed,  and if it's not, I'll find a
better way,

Cheers,
