Hi,
i wouldn't recommend you to use the 1.0.1f version, since it has a CVE-2016-2107

you can see here (second comment, for me its a good explanation)

try to update your openssl ;)
i have tried to do as you say and it gives me  the lists as folow :

and doing  your query above:

apache@ubuntu:~$ openssl ciphers -v 'EDH'

As you can see, it gives me the same result, nothing changes...
 but, if you try a wrong query, for exapmle 'E' and then try out 'DEH'
that will give you an error... strange but true, you should think in
opne  a bugg issue  to the openssl team maybe im not sure what is
this; i was just messing around with openssl and found that weird
behaviour.
