I'm wondering if this is the same problem as we had with
libcrypt-ssleay-perl (#334938) not calling SSL_library_init().
Atleast stunnel4 and postfix don't seem to be calling this,
but dovecot-imapd seems to do it, not sure at the right time,
didn't have time to look at it.

So I have to wonder if this is a change in requirement to call
this function in 0.9.8.

I will take a closer look at this later, but would appreciate if
someone could test that calling SSL_library_init() fixes the
problem or not.
