You are about to be asked to enter information that will be

What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or
a DN.
There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank
For some fields there will be a default value,
If you enter '.', the field will be left blank.

OK so that seems to work. Maybe its just when x509 does it.

Can you try:
openssl req -new -nodes -out req.pem -rand /tmp/somefile

then
openssl x509 -req -in req.pem -out sscert.pem -signkey privkey.pem

if that second command dumps core then a stack trace under a debugger
would help a lot.

Thanks, Steve.
