Comment (by nickm):

 Quick notes:
   * crypto_openssl_get_header_version_str leaks its output.  It should
 probably use the static-variable trick.
   * I don't think the hex thing is actually needed.  (I wonder why I
 mentioned it above?)
   * I hope we aren't supporting zlib <= 1.1; zlib 1.1.0 was released in
 1998, and several security flaws in zlib have been fixed since then.

 Other than that, it seems okay to me.

 It's going to conflict with #4647, but that's not a big deal. (Don't worry
 about this; solving merge conflicts my thing.) I'll merge it after #4647,
 since it'll probably be easier that way.
