It was committed yesterday.

See commit from Simon Nielsen:
simon       2007-05-22 20:28:19 UTC

   FreeBSD src repository

   Modified files:
     crypto/openssl/crypto/asn1 asn1.h
     crypto/openssl/crypto/ocsp ocsp.h
     crypto/openssl/crypto/pem pem.h
   Log:
   Fix runtime crash in OpenSSL with "Illegal instruction" by making  
some
   casts a bit less evil.

   This was e.g. seen when using portsnap as:

     Fetching snapshot tag from portsnap3.FreeBSD.org... Illegal  
instruction

   Note the patch is slightly different from kan's original patch to
   match style in the OpenSSL source files a bit better.
