OpenVPN fails to build against LibreSSL 2.5.1

Description

Attempting to build against LibreSSL 2.5.1 results in the following compilation error: 

ssl_openssl.c: In function ‘tls_ctx_load_ecdh_params’:
ssl_openssl.c:512:28: error: ‘SSL_CTX {aka struct ssl_ctx_st}’ has no member named ‘cert’
         ssl.cert = ctx->ctx->cert;
                            ^
make[3]: *** [Makefile:670: ssl_openssl.o] Error 1

This is due to change 5a887ca93f1f8d1f3e55878cfa98141777e543da in libressl (CVS: ssl.h,v 1.113) which moved large number of fields from struct ssl_ctx_st into ssl_ctx_internal_st.

This was originally reported to Gentoo as ​ bug 608244 . That bug now includes a patch which fixes the error.

... 2.4.1 is supposed to be released today, and contains the fix. So I'll close this ticket.
