I'm not going to make a call on any of these versions, I just want
to point out that we do need to (and *want* to) support older release
of distributions that do not ship "most recent" OpenSSL versions yet.

So we're somewhat caught in the middle between arch linux with 1.1.0
and something like RHEL that ships seriously old OpenSSL (with patches).

This said, we need to regularily re-evaluate what the oldest distribution
is that a given OpenVPN branch should support, and then we can drop support
for older OpenSSL versions...
