 .Dv OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER
 is a numeric release version identifier.
-The first two digits contain the major release number,
+For OpenSSL, the first two digits contain the major release number,
 the third and fourth digits the minor release number,
 the fifth and sixth digits the fix release number,
 the seventh and eight digits the patch release number.
 The final digit is 0 for development, 1 to e for betas 1 to 14, or f
 for release.
+For LibreSSL, this number is always 0x020000000.
