This causes configure to fail on SLES 11 sp3 LTSS. SUSE backports
security fixes for openssl 0.9.8 until 2019.
I have found the corresponding git commit which changes configure.ac,
and would like to undo it. Apart from the concern that upstream at
openssl stopped supporting 0.9.8, are there any other reasons behind
this change (new dependencies on 1.0.1 which are not checked elsewhere)?

kind regards,
Martin
