That might be a start, yes. However we are seeing segfaults at runtime,
so even if tests are fixed these bugs won't go away.

Meanwhile i've been trying hard to compile nodejs 8,
with openssl 1.1.0 support backported from nodejs 9, and it works !
(it needs to build againt bundled libuv, cctest can't build, and few js
tests fail).

So i'm going to upload it to experimental really soon now (i'm doing last
minute
checks).
