Personally I'd put this up front, more like

   have been initialized by your application, so that
   <application>libpq</application> will not also initialize those libraries.
+  However, this is unnecessary when using OpenSSL 1.1.0 or later,

  </para>

If you do use wording that specifically mentions PQinitOpenSSL,
it should also mention PQinitSSL, just for clarity.
