Looks like an unusable mess for C++, this seems to be common problem with all of these crypto libraries-- just too many files and too complex of a build system(shocker not everyone uses CMake).

CMake is the de-facto standard for C++ build systems - its not the simplest, but it does an outstanding job at being widespread and reliable.

As someone who sometimes uses e.g. FreeBSD, I'll take CMake over someone's hand-crafted Makefile any day.
