Is there any parts of Delphi/Indy/ICS/Android  environments etc that might 
contain the Open SSL  bug? (ie does anything use OpenSSL?)

I understand the bug has been present for 2 years, so earlier *should* be 
OK, how about anything in the XE5 environment?

I understand there is a separate issue in that programs that are OK that 
communicate with eg an unpatched Apache web server will still be vulnerable.

I also read that Android 4.1.1 is also vulnerable

Some information about what uses what:

(MacOS, Indy  uses OpenSSL):

eg "Using SSL/HTTPS with Indy’s TIdHttp (or through TRESTClient – which is 
effectively based on TIdHttp) requires external OpenSSL libraries, which is 
something most of us probably learned in the past."
