Update cross-compiling examples.

- Make sure the mingw/mingw64 scripts are executable.
- Execute quilt pop -a in the OpenSSL source tree to remove Debian-specific
  patches that might break cross-compilation.

 OpenSSL is always a bit hard to compile, because they have their own
 `Configure` script that needs some tweaking. There is also a small bug in
-e_os2.h that breaks compilation with recent versions of GCC. First download
+e_os2.h in OpenSSL 0.9.8 that breaks compilation with recent versions of GCC.
+If you have this version of OpenSSL, then first download
 this [[openssl-cross-compilation.diff]] to your home directory, then patch
-OpenSSL, and then compile as usual.  Do not use the `-j` option when compiling
