commit 4436299296cc10c6d6611b066b4b73dc0bdae1a6
Author: Dr. Stephen Henson <steve at openssl.org>

    Reject inappropriate private key encryption ciphers.
    
    The traditional private key encryption algorithm doesn't function
    properly if the IV length of the cipher is zero. These ciphers
    (e.g. ECB mode) are not suitable for private key encryption
    anyway.
