[openssl-users] Why wasn't the fix for IP name restrictions included in 1.0.2 ?

[Jakob Bohm]

Way back in May 2014, there was a patch by Matt Casswell to not
incorrectly reject all certificate chains with IP address name
constraints and actual IP address names
(dd36fce023a64d90058b8fefbd95dadaca98f9ca).

However for some unknown reason, this was not included in 1.0.2
which thus still rejects all such certificate chains.

Why?


Enjoy
