Without versioning m2crypto failed to load on Android 5.1.1 and lower. |

Looks good, thanks. Do you know why this wasn't happening before, is the system openssl a new addition? |

It appears that unknowingly the system openssl was being used and cyanogenmod has a newer version installed than stock. I discovered this when the specific missing symbol turned out to be a new addition going from 1.0.1.l to 1.0.2. |

On Android versions lower than 6.0 the openssl library of the system is being loaded instead of the one provided with the app.
Adding the version to the name of the shared library file avoids the problem of the linker at runtime giving the wrong version of the library and provides a clear indication of what version you are using (good ensuring you use the latest version for security).
