I see only one reasons not to do this. ERR_STRING_DATA is OpenSSL
specific structure. Right now I am trying to separate crypto code from
everything else and I have not yet decided what to do with errors strings.
Most likely, there will be a separate error strings list and I think I 
got your
point that it should be "visible".
