So, you are:

- Not concerned about switching OpenSSL library to 1.1.1, which is
known to introduce multiple behaviour changes, including
TLS 1.3 enabled by default.

- Not concerned about using unsupported old nginx version.

- But concerned about doing an nginx rebuild against the library
you are running nginx with.

That sounds even more interesting than switching to OpenSSL 1.1.1 alone.

TLS 1.3 is disabled by default in nginx, and that's probably the
most serious change you'll encounter - after recompilation, TLS
1.3 will be disabled by default as it should. I'm not aware of
any additional behaviour changes.
