I'm sorry, I did not finish the "I tested the patch on... line"

It should have been:
"I tested the patch on CentOS release 6.2 (Final)

Description:
------------
I found the function openssl_pkcs7_verify not working correctly with the PKCS7_BINARY flag and an
ASN1 encoded input file.

I traced the error message returned by openssl_error_string() and found the error hidden in
ext/openssl/openssl.c.

When using libopenssl and ASN1 input you have to use the d2i_PKCS7_bio function instead of
SMIME_read_PKCS7 because of a known bug in the later one("The parser assumes that the PKCS7
structure is always base64 encoded and will not handle the case where it is in binary format or uses
quoted printable format." [from man 3 SMIME_read_PKCS7]).

I changed the code in ext/openssl/openssl.c similar to the one from openssl-1.0.0/apps/smime.c (the
openssl command line tool).

I tested my patch successfully on 



Test script:
---------------
echo(openssl_pkcs7_verify("input", PKCS7_BINARY|PKCS7_NOVERIFY);
echo(openssl_error_string());

with ASN1 encoded "input" file.

Expected result:
----------------
output of: "1" and no error message

(this expected result actually occurs with my patch applied)

Actual result:
--------------
output of "-1error:0D0D40D1:asn1 encoding routines:SMIME_read_ASN1:no content type"
