Not sure --- I forwarded your message to Marko for comment.

According to http://www.openssl.org/news/ you're short at least two
security fixes, so I don't feel any strong need to support 0.9.6g per se.
But if the same API issue exists in 0.9.6-current then we probably ought
to think about whether we can cope. It looks to me like 0.9.6 is still
considered a supported branch by the OpenSSL community.
