Comment:

 Can't reproduce the test crash with OpenSSL 1.1.0-pre4 or master so I'm
 inclined to say "Upgrade to a more recent OpenSSL '''development pre-
 release''' snapshot".

 This gets OpenSSL 1.1.0-pre4 and 1.1.0-pre5-dev (aka `master`) building
 and the tests don't crash, I think the changes are low risk enough that
 they can be taken for 0.2.8.x, though I did the work against master.
