Also, having a look at the t/dhe.t file I read:

I think that the version check below that comment is the cause:
removing it (but leaving the "SSL_version => 'tlsv1'") solves the
problem for me with libssl 1.0.1 (but would probably break with older
versions).

Given that OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER is a macro, maybe simply rebuilding
libnet-ssleay-perl against the new libssl would solve the issue?

Cheers
