Yeah, I think only the "general" parameters would be set by very
many people. +1 for renaming the OpenSSL-only parameters.
I don't know too much about the internals here, so looking at your
list, I wonder whether "ssl_dh_params_file" ought to be treated as
implementation-specific too. The other four files seem essential
to any feature-complete implementation, but is that one?
