Control: found -1 openssl/1.0.1e-2+deb7u4

Hi,

A helpful trick I found after upgrade is to:
# lsof -nnP | grep libssl.so.1

Look for entries that mention an inode number - this means an unlinked,
older version of the library rather than the one currently at that path:

> nginx 23947        root  mem       REG              254,2             1452500 
> /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl.so.1.0.0 (path dev=0,17, inode=1454629)

After restarting the service, the process's pid changes obviously, but
is now using the current version of libssl too:

> nginx  3791        root  mem       REG              254,2             1454629 
> /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl.so.1.0.0 (path dev=0,17)

I discovered today that many services had not even restarted since the
*last* openssl security upgrade.  The DSA does mention it though.
