That said, and I also included this in my answers to the questions
that Nick removed in his reply, I don't think that a lot of

this potential breakage as a chance for improvement. See the last
question (listed here again)...

1. Is it a good strategy to ship to Python releases for every
   single OpenSSL security release or is there a better way to
   handle these 3rd party issues ?

Isn't this only a packaging issue? There is no change to the Python API or implementation, so there is no need to change the version number. So just make new Windows packages.

The precedent is to add a dash and a package number. I can't remember what version this was applied to before - but I got a +1 from Guido for suggesting it :)
