I didn't realize there is a pushback for the patch..May be he needs to see
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/9520,
CVE-2019-5443 <https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2019-5443> and our own
CVE?

I have a patch setting OPENSSL_CONF etc using SetEnvironmentVariableW() but
it needs more testing especially for OPENSSL_ENGINES and OPENSSL_MODULES in
3.0.
Is _putenv preferred?
