That function has been added in openssl 1.0.2, which is not the jessie
version 1.0.1.
If the only problem is there,
https://github.com/nodejs/node/commit/ae8831f240f4477ab3372094d2207897fc5d1e17

shows that these functions are needed to implement a feature that can be
disabled
at runtime using the X509_V_FLAG_NO_ALT_CHAINS userland option, so there's
hope
it can be patched out.
However, reading https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/589 it seems more
code
rely on openssl >= 1.0.2, so it might be impossible to backport nodejs 4
LTS to
jessie without having a backport of openssl as well.
