Since svn rev 69 (a bit after 4.0 beta 1 was released), libmsn also includes
the following exception to allow linkage to OpenSSL:

In addition to the license terms of the GNU General Public License,
as copied below, the developers of libmsn give you permission
to link the code of this release of libmsn with the OpenSSL project's
"OpenSSL" library (or with modified versions of it that use the same
license as the "OpenSSL" library), and distribute the linked executables.
You must obey the GNU General Public License in all respects for all of
the code used other than "OpenSSL". If you modify this file, you may
extend this exception to your version of the file, but you are not
obligated to do so. If you do not wish to do so, delete this exception
statement from your version.

That exception also applies to 4.0 beta 1, as stated by this e-mail from
the libmsn developer to the Debian packager:

Yes, it was not in beta1 because I released the package before adding
that exception.
