Have you got details on what exactly is required from 1.0.2?  Is it ALPN 
support?

I strongly suspect it will be possible (with sufficient effort) to patch 
node to build against older OpenSSL, albeit at the cost of losing some 
features.  

There is a trade-off here between disabling 1.0.2 features & waiting for 
RHEL OpenSSL to catch up, versus having to maintain & patch a copy of 
OpenSSL 1.0.2 in addition to the RHEL OpenSSL.  i.e. someone is ready to 
deal with patching all future Critical security issues in a bundled 
OpenSSL.
