This kind of error is often seen where there is a conflict between the
built-in version of openssl and the version you have compiled.

Redhat 7.0,7.1 and 7.2 all come with openssl. Currently they are all older
versions than what you can compile from source, and so are the version of
apache and mod_ssl that they supply. 

Can you check what you get if you type

rpm -q apache
rpm -q mod_ssl

These are the built-in packages, which may also conflict with what you have
compiled. Unlike openssl, you will be able to remove these packages,
although you may have to remove other packages also. In the case of openssl,
ensure you don't overwrite the built-in one in /usr/bin. Use /usr/local/bin
instead. If you have, use

rpm -ivh "openssl-package-name" --force

To forcibly reinstall the built-in package.

Incidentally, I'm currently writing a submission for the openssl FAQ because
this comes up so often.
