Yeah, on reflection I think it'd be safe to do
#if (SSLEAY_VERSION_NUMBER >= 0x00907000L) && !defined(OPENSSL_NO_ENGINE)
ENGINE *ptr;
#else
/* dummy field to keep struct the same if OpenSSL version changes */
void *ptr;
#endif
(probably that #if should get wrapped up in an additional #define
instead of being duplicated in several places...)

That's controlled by an entry in pg_config.h, though, and won't change
if someone happens to update their openssl install and then recompile
only parts of libpq.
