Thanks Amos,

This is indeed the same bug that was there for a long time in the 1.0.0
version of RH and friends.
Alex gave me before the link to this bug:
http://bugs.squid-cache.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3232

It was on FEDORA not CentOS but it seems like the same problem with
OPENSSL_PSTRING.

In my build of CentOS I dropped for the 3.2.5 the dynamic cert so I dont
know the exact status of CentOS.
They didn't had any updates\upgrades of OpenSSL for a very long time.

I am using:
##
Installed Packages
Name : openssl
Arch : x86_64
Version : 1.0.0
Release : 25.el6_3.1
Size : 3.6 M
Repo : installed
 From repo : updates
Summary : A general purpose cryptography library with TLS implementation
URL : http://www.openssl.org/
License : OpenSSL
Description : The OpenSSL toolkit provides support for secure
communications between
             : machines. OpenSSL includes a certificate management tool
and shared
             : libraries which provide various cryptographic algorithms and
             : protocols.
##

There were some patches before to make it work.
I dont know when RH or CentOS are planning to do something about it but
Fedora branches are getting pretty fast upgrades for OpenSSL.

Build tests against a fixed version of OpenSSL for CentOS is good? or we
want to stay compatible with the borken mainstream version?
