I've just reinstalled openssl 1.0.2, and recompiled all ports that link 
to openssl. And I'm still getting huge problems. PHP-FPM races and 
starts loads of processes and uses 50+ load average making the machine 
unresponsive. And trying to run a /bin/sh shell script gives this:

sh: environment corrupt; missing value for USERNAME

This is clearly very dangerous and broken. Backing out to openssl 1.0.1 
fixes everything.
