Those patches are going to need a careful review by looking at the
areas they are changing, and a backpatch. On Arch there is no test
package available except in AUR. And that's the pre3 release, OpenSSL
folks are on pre5 now with their beta2. It would be annoying to
compile it manually, but if there is no other way... Is Debian up to
date with 1.1.0 beta2 in its snapshot packages?
