Including libcrypto.0.9.7.dylib for backwards compatibility

I'm currently working on a project utilizing the AES encryption calls
included in <openssl/aes.h>.  I'm compiling the project in Xcode 2.1
on OS X 10.4.3, and it runs just fine on OS X 10.3 and higher.
However, I would like to include compatibility for OS X 10.2 and
higher, which is not possible (as far as I have been able to
determine), due to the fact that libcrypto on OS X 10.2 does not
include access to the AES calls.  I've found various references to
projects that have included a copy of libcrypto.0.9.7.dylib in the
built application, but I'm not quite sure how to go about including
the file in my program distribution.  If anyone could shed any light
on this, it would be greatly appreciated.

I realize that I could switch to another encryption format (such as
blowfish or des), which would function on older distributions of
libcrypto, however if it is easier to just include a copy of the newer
version of libcrypto with my application, I would like to do so.

Thanks for any tips or insights on how to accomplish this task!
