	    I suppose it would be tighter then, if you were to include the
    OpenSSL license as an appendix to the copyright exception itself?

Yes.  Or you could say "a derivative of the program OpenSSL published
by NAME OF ORGANIZATION".

	    Could we also pseudo-uniquely identify COPYING.OpenSSL with an
    MD5 checksum?

That might solve the problem too.
