+This script should be called *manually* when we want to upgrade SSLError
+`library` and `reason` mnemnonics to a more recent OpenSSL version.
+
+It takes two arguments:
+- the path to the OpenSSL include files' directory
+ (e.g. openssl-1.0.1-beta3/include/openssl/)
+- the path to the C file to be generated
+ (probably Modules/_ssl_data.h)
