[EDIT: also posted to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=364877.0 ... didn't know, I can post to other boards as well]

Patch for bitcoin for systems with openssl, which is supporting ECC, but missing NID_secp256k1 (e.g. Fedora >= 20).

No need to recompile openssl or install compat libraries on Fedora >= 20.
