It can take a long time to execute sometimes as it performs two slow DH
parameter generation operations. Retry it a few times. If it still doesn't
complete try:

OPENSSL_FIPS=1 util/shlib_wrap.sh apps/openssl version -a

Note that the utilities in the 1.2.3 build come from an ancient version of
OpenSSL 0.9.8 and to get a usable library you must build an FIPS capable
OpenSSL using the 1.2.3 fipscanister.o and a recent 0.9.8 version.
