Don't forget BoringSSL.

Can look at it. There has been a lot of discussion, iirc, between OpenSSL and LibreSSL re: version identification. Thx for the reference.

In an ideal world this would be rtl linking, i.e., underlying complexities of *SSL libraries are hidden from applications.
In short, when I saw this http://bugs.python.org/issue26465 Title: Upgrade OpenSSL shipped with python installers, it reminded me I need to start looking at LibreSSL again - and that, if not already done - might be something "secure" for python as well. According to the libressl website, one of the projects primary goals is to remain "backwards-compatible with OpenSSL", which is to say, to either have code work without changes or to fail gracefully when it uses the deprecated bits. It does seem it ships with OpenBSD. There is an issue open on bugs to address whatever incompatibilities remain between LibreSSL and OpenSSL[1]. Perhaps you might want to take a look at that? -- H 1. https://bugs.python.org/issue23177
