Even current staging (db1eb19) still suffers from the same issue as 19.09, so this can't be merged as-is.

To recap: pyopenssl fails to build with that, upstream tracking issue is in pyca/pyopenssl#899.

I'll file PRs applying just the CVE-fixing patch. We can probably still "properly" bump openssl as soon as pyopenssl has updated their code.

Please update to 1.1.1f. It's like 1.1.1e, but without EOF change (see https://www.openssl.org/news/openssl-1.1.1-notes.html).
