I see the imperative form is much less common, 100 vs 1604. I wanted
to add the engine bit, since the package name, libp11, sounds like a
library for pkcs11. Which exists, but no one uses that. It's really
about the openssl engine.

I didn't want to use that, since the github macro didn't produce the
official release tarball. Hence the need for autoreconf. I was under
the impression buildroot policy was to prefer an official release
package vs a git repository tag.

Yes, you're right, I failed to update this. I added this package back
in 2017 and up to buildroot 2017.02 the license string was
"LGLPv2.1(+?)".
