'openssl-c-rehash.patch' is being applied, but at some point in the build process the change is reverted. I haven't figured out why yet. Ludo is right, it would be really good to only change our OpenSSL package one day this week. So, I'm asking for help with this problem! I will spend some time on it tomorrow, but I really don't have any promising leads. My plan is to step through the build process and learn when the shebang is recreated. Hopefully then I will get some inspiration. I suppose a nasty short term fix would be to patch the file after installing it. I will submit that patch if it seems there is no other option in time for the security update.
