Version: OpenSSL-1.0.1j
OS: Gentoo

This issue was filed before, but nothing has come of it.

In my specific application I am using libbsh2 with OpenSSL crypto callbacks
and Helgrind/DRD is reporting a race condition in crypto/mem.c:(257,301),
where the global variable allow_customize is set to 0.

I have compiled OpenSSL with the patch from the above link and the reported
race condition has been resolved.
