In all versions of BIND up to 9.12, it is possible to compile BIND without
openssl by using "configure --without-openssl".

There will be features you can't use. They're good features, and in my
opinion disabling them is a mistake, but you are allowed to do so.

In BIND 9.13, the option to disable these features no longer exists.
