The web man page describing OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER claims it has 9 hex digits:
DESCRIPTION
OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER is a numeric release version identifier:
 MMNNFFPPS: major minor fix patch status

The text of the man page is self-consistent since many of the examples also 
show 9 digits. Of course none of those actually fit in a 32-bit long.

The flaw is that the page claims two digits for the major release "MM" when the 
opensslv.h supports only one digit, e.g MNNFFPPS.
