Great, thanks. I should note that, as before, I haven't actually done
any real *testing* of this lot. Only build testing under Linux. I think
I did manage to create a Windows VM with a build environment for EDK2
at one point; I should at least dust that off.

Like using the OpenSSL TS support instead of our own? That would be
good. Likewise I think I remember a vague plan of making it possible to
disable the OCSP code, since we don't use it?

Note that the OpenSSL 1.1 Beta 1 release is scheduled in "about a
month"¹, and that is the feature/API freeze deadline. Anything we want
added (other than bug fixes, of course), needs to be in by then.

In the fullness of time, I would *also* like to clean up the litter of
include files we provide in CryptoPkg/Include purely for the benefit of
OpenSSL — removing stuff from OpenSslSupport.h as we go. If we really
want to stop OpenSSL from including/requiring those headers then that
makes sense to do before Beta 1 too.

I might start by looking for things which can be considered "obviously"
bugs — like including anything in netinet/ when configured with no-sock 
for example. And I really don't see why it needs syslog.h for the UEFI
build, or dirent.h for a no-stdio (which really means no file access)
build.
