Doing "echo DEVELOPER=1 >config.mak" does not help in any way. I get
the same errors. Here's my diff, in case I have been making mistakes
all along.

>From my limited knowledge of OpenSSL libraries, I think the error has
more to do with 'SSL_library_init()' , which appears like a
constructor to the OpenSSL library. I found these emails regarding
"if" cases around this function. Please check out these patches:
1. Rosen Penev:
https://lore.kernel.org/git/20181227023548.396-1-rosenp@xxxxxxxxx/
2. eroen: https://lore.kernel.org/git/20170112104219.563497-1-git-scm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

Are the fixes made in these patches relevant here. Please let me know
if I'm going wrong.

Thanks!
