Disable SSLv2.

The configure script checks for SSLv2_method() being present in <openssl/ssl.h>.  This is visible unless you compile with -DOPENSSL_NO_SSL2_METHOD.  We don't have the SSLv2_method present in the library so the include file check gives a false positive.

The easiest way I found to fix it was to simply prevent sslv2 from being detected.  In 2016, this should absolutely be the case anyway.

The trivial fix I came up with is attached.

The compile failure that shows the mis-detection of SSLv2:

Looks good to me.  Thank you!

alternative patch to disable import of the SSLv2_client_method symbol

Alternative approach since Peter's does not appear to work on FreeBSD 10.3-RELEASE (which checks for OPENSSL_NO_SSL2 instead - note the missing _METHOD suffix) is to preload the autoconf cache.  (Sorry Corey, I figured that only when reviewing before the commit.)
Comment 4 Matthias Andree freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-05-22 12:51:09 UTC
(Peter@, feel free to reassign the bug to yourself if Corey as the maintainer has approved of my patch.)

alternative patch to disable import of the SSLv2_client_method symbol

Passes 'poudriere testport' on 9.3, 10.1, and 10.3 for amd64; looks good to me. Thank you!

Author: mandree

New revision: 415811
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/ports/415811

Log:
  Disable SSLv2, to fix new/from-ports OpenSSL builds.

  Newer and ports-based builds define the SSLv2_client_method() in the
  headers unless OPENSSL_NO_SSL2, or, depending on version,
  OPENSSL_NO_SSL2_METHOD is defined, however newer OpenSSL versions in
  FreeBSD no longer provide the implementation in the library.

  Preload the autoconf (configure) cache to pretend SSLv2_client_method()
  were universally _un_available, effectively disabling SSLv2 altogether.

Peter, Corey, if you think this should be MFH'd to the 2016Q2 ports branch, please drive that effort forward yourselves, my interest in 11-CURRENT is (currently) near zero.  It appears that it fixes a -HEAD build failure and thus qualifies for a MFH.
