Comment (by jcftang):

 zooko: I did not realise that building python eggs included a compiled
 binary blob, anyway as requested, attached to this ticket is an egg for
 rhel5.7 (SL5.7 to be exact), it was built using openssl 0.98o. Please
 test!

 Also apologies for not reading ticket pyopenssl Bug #845445 more
 thoroughly, it looks like they see the problem which is good :).

 Under linux I've been using a home brew build system (which allows
 multiple versions of software to be installed, for a cluster compute
 environment) but it isn't very mature, it may be of interest.  This is how
 I install alternate versions of openssl, python, whatever for testing and
 deployment. This may be better discussed on the mailing list if there is
 interest.

 I might be able to help setup something to automatically build some eggs
 for submission, but I would need to check for permission with the guys in
 work first before I can commit to anything.
