Thank you Gert and p50bac,

Indeed, I built an RPM for pkcs11-helper v1.11 by adapting:
http://pkgs.repoforge.org/pkcs11-helper/pkcs11-helper-1.08-1.rf.src.rpm
and using as a source:
https://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/repo/pkgs/pkcs11-helper/pkcs11-helper-1.11.tar.bz2/59f2ac76c66e4dc0c21614cc944e89fb/pkcs11-helper-1.11.tar.bz2
and then installed it.

Then OpenVPN v2.3.5 was built without problems. So, thanks again!

A second question; I am currently using (in production):

    NetworkManager-openvpn-0.8.1-0.1.git20100609.el6.x86_64
    openvpn-auth-ldap-2.0.3-6.el6.x86_64
    openvpn-2.2.2-1.el6.x86_64
    pkcs11-helper-1.07-5.src.rpm

Our config is using three server instances. Two of them are using the 
net30 and one of them the subnet topology.

Can I *simply* (i.e. as a drop-in replacement, without config changes) 
upgrade by installing:
  From EPEL:
     NetworkManager-openvpn-0.8.1-0.2.git20100609.el6.x86_64
     easy-rsa-2.2.2-1.el6.noarch.rpm
  As built by myself:
     pkcs11-helper-debuginfo-1.11-1.el6.x86_64
     pkcs11-helper-1.11-1.el6.x86_64
     pkcs11-helper-devel-1.11-1.el6.x86_64
     openvpn-debuginfo-2.3.5-1.el6.x86_64.rpm
     openvpn-debuginfo-2.3.5-1.el6.x86_64.rpm
?

Is it safe to upgrade our production installation without any changes to 
the server configuration?Are new versions backward-compatible in terms 
of configuration files/settings?

Also, do the users (clients) need to upgrade immediately to the new 
version of OpenVPN (2.3.5), or they will be able to connect without 
problems with their OpenVPN versions ranging from 2.2.2 to 2.3.2?

Please advise!

Thanks,
Nick
