OpenSSL version 3.0.0-alpha1 build failed

[Thomas Dwyer III]

For what it's worth, I also get similar perl crashes from the Configure
script. All of my build servers (which I do not control) have perl 5.10.1
installed on Oracle Linux 6.5. I tested with 5.12.5 and that also crashed
in the same way. 5.14.4 is the oldest version (stable branch) I could find
that worked.
