New submission from Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr>:

OpenSSL 1.0.0 needs to change the cipher list for some test_ssl tests to 
succeed, but the cipher list can't be changed in 2.6/3.1 (maintenance 
branches). The solution is to skip these tests with the newer OpenSSLs.

This patch uses the "openssl" executable to fetch the OpenSSL version, but we 
could instead backport OPENSSL_VERSION_* from trunk, at least as  undocumented 
attributes. What do you think?
