What version of Red Hat?

On 7.3 and 8.0, I've had no problems building Net::SSLeay through CPAN with
Red Hat's OpenSSL libraries. 8.0 failed to build until Net::SSLeay 1.21 was
released due to the perl version, but now that's a non-issue.

The FAQ you listed is correct - though you can essentially install your
latest OpenSSL package, and then rebuild the RPM's to link to the newer
OpenSSL libraries. That or roll those packages yourself from .tar.gz.

Some packages that come to mind that are affected are (that I've had to
rebuild in the past after updating OpenSSL):

OpenSSH
Apache (mod_ssl)
PHP
Sendmail
