Looking for config option to stop use of CryptoAPI (TSVN 1.7.1)

From: Joel Jirak <joel_at_jirak.us>

Hello,

There's been a change of behavior that I see when upgrading from 1.6.x
to 1.7.1. It looks like Tortoise is now built with access to MS
CryptoAPI enabled in OpenSSL. (Not sure if this is the exact right
technical description, but perhaps you know what I mean.) This is
causing a a popup from my smart card software for almost any SVN
operation. For example, when browsing to a repository, I have to hit
cancel 4 times, until it falls back to using the cert file that I
configured in my servers file. It's the same behavior I described
here: http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4061&dsMessageId=92849.
 Unfortunately, my company requires me to use the smart card software,
so uninstalling it is not an option.

Is there any way to work around this behavior so that TortoiseSVN uses
just what's configured in the servers file and doesn't cause popups
from accessing the MS certificate store? Perhaps a configuration
option that would disable it? I couldn't find anything in the help or
in the advanced options that seemed relevant.

Thank you for considering the matter. I've been looking forward to
upgrading to 1.7.x and hope I'm not forced to stay with 1.6.x.
