My bad here - that should say RHEL 5.10, as everything from there down use
0.9.8e or lower.  It's what I get for a last-thing before I leave post.
RHEL 6.0-6.4 use 1.0.0-fips which was plagued by the ec.h issue (fixed).

This I think is a gcc issue - I can't get openssl 1.0.1i to build cleanly
as shared on anything lower than gcc 4.x
