Right, that was the idea. I wanted it to include the word "OpenSSL", to 
make it clear in the callers that it's specific to OpenSSL. And SSL, 
because that's the name of the struct. I agree it looks silly, though. 
One idea is to have two separate arguments: the implementation name, and 
the struct name. PQgetSSLstruct(&ssl, "OpenSSL", "SSL") would look less 
silly.
