Well first the good news : managed to get past the need for C11 atomics
with the bundled libatomic.so.1 that the Oracle people provide in the
dev tools.
So that works now. Yay.
Now comes the next horrible hurdle to jump and that seems to be called
the quic protocol goodness. For the record I am able to get a good
result if I go with "no-quic" in the config :

That all builds neatly on this old platform and all the testsuite looks
to be sweet :
.
.
.
All tests successful.
Files=312, Tests=3182, 6723 wallclock secs (25.17 usr 3.15 sys +
6375.57 cusr 171.52 csys = 6575.41 CPU)
Result: PASS
`test' is up to date.
So that is cute.
However, if I leave in the "quic"-ness then I eventually land on this
weird linking problem :
Undefined first referenced

ossl_quic_rxfc_get_final_size test/cert_comp_test-bin-cert_comp_test.o

Looking into my compile logs I see that quic_vlint.c gets processed into
three output objects :
{CC foo} -c -o crypto/libcrypto-lib-quic_vlint.o crypto/quic_vlint.c
{CC foo} -c -o crypto/libcrypto-shlib-quic_vlint.o crypto/quic_vlint.c
{CC foo} -c -o crypto/libssl-shlib-quic_vlint.o crypto/quic_vlint.c
I see that quic_impl.c gets processed into two output objects :
{CC foo} -c -o ssl/quic/libssl-lib-quic_impl.o ssl/quic/quic_impl.c
{CC foo} -c -o ssl/quic/libssl-shlib-quic_impl.o ssl/quic/quic_impl.c
Similarly we see that quic_sstream.c results in two objects also :
output object file input source
------------------------------------------------------------------
ssl/quic/libssl-lib-quic_sstream.o ssl/quic/quic_sstream.c
ssl/quic/libssl-shlib-quic_sstream.o ssl/quic/quic_sstream.c
Next I see quic_stream_map.c results in two object files :
output object file input source
------------------------------------------------------------------
ssl/quic/libssl-lib-quic_stream_map.o ssl/quic/quic_stream_map.c
ssl/quic/libssl-shlib-quic_stream_map.o ssl/quic/quic_stream_map.c
Same situation again for quic_tserver.c :
output object file input source
------------------------------------------------------------------
ssl/quic/libssl-lib-quic_tserver.o ssl/quic/quic_tserver.c
ssl/quic/libssl-shlib-quic_tserver.o ssl/quic/quic_tserver.c
Lastly we see quic_txp.c gives us two objects also :
output object file input source
------------------------------------------------------------------
ssl/quic/libssl-lib-quic_txp.o ssl/quic/quic_txp.c
ssl/quic/libssl-shlib-quic_txp.o ssl/quic/quic_txp.c
Looking at the above I can only guess that we are creating objects to
be linked later into a shared lib as well as object to be tossed into
a static lib AR type foo.a result. Just a guess.
None of the above seem involved with the stuff in the test directory and
clearly not a test/cert_comp_test-bin-cert_comp_test.o object file.
So ... what is going on here ?
