​I think 'yarek'​

​ tries to build nginx with a 3rd-party program.
I'd suggest to use either the latest stable (v1.6.0) or mainline (v1.7.1)
source.
v1.4.3 is pretty old now and is deprecated.

Btw, nginx links the OpenSSL library dynamically, so the bug has never lied
inside nginx.
It depends on the version of OpenSSL which has been used to compile nginx
(since using a version other than the one used for compilation at run time
might fail/introduce problems).

​'yarek' you could have compared the error message triggered by the source
you were using with the current ngx_event_openssl.c source file
http://trac.nginx.org/nginx/browser/nginx/src/event/ngx_event_openssl.c.
You would have seen that the deprecation of the constant you triggered is
handled, by a check for its existence. Lukas has been kind enough to
provide you with the exact commit introducing this change.

​To sump up:
- use recent/supported source http://nginx.org/en/download.html
- use an unaffected version of OpenSSL
https://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20140407.txt​ when compiling your
nginx binary. All major distro (including Debian) have fixed their
repositories with corrected versions for a long time now
