So it's not required by OpenSSL, it's required by the compiler whenever floating point is used, which can be in multiple places. For example, this is used in mu_plus (the Microsoft UEFI value add to EDK2) by the OnScreenKeyboard driver as well as the UiToolKit driver. If you happen to use BaseCryptLib or the intrinsic in a driver that happens to need crypto as well, it can break due to multiple.

I do agree, this only applies to MSVC and requiring every platform to add a line in their DSC would be a situation I would prefer to avoid if possible. Is there a way to specify a library dependency only if a toolchain is being used?
