That's sad, but I don't think it matters.

BTW, looking into OpenSSL 0.9.7 suggests it should be fine, and the
change proposed will break build.

The workaround for perl is to make it possible to build nginx with
a perl version available by default, and it changes nothing in
other cases.

Suggested patch for OpenSSL, in contrast, only required for build
of OpenSSL by nginx (which is exotic on OS X anyway), only needed
for old versions of OpenSSL, and will break building for i386 if
needed for whatever reason, as well as building of at least some
supported OpenSSL versions.
