If OpenSSL talks to OpenSSL, and both ends have been set up with the SSLv23_method, and SSL_CTX_set_options has not been used to disable all TLS versions, then SSL 3.0 will never be negotiated, and attacks on SSL 3.0 are a non-issue. Even if you do not use TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV at all, or OpenSSL versions which do not support it.

So it does matter who you talk to.
