For my part, I'm going to wait a while to see what migration improvements
come from OpenSSL and I don't plan on merging any changes to support 1.1.x
until there's a better story.

I'm sure that if OpenSSL come up with a cleaner way for their users to
support 1.0.x and 1.1.x then it will be easier to convince Libre/BoringSSL
to follow suit.
