[openssl-dev] requirements for tests in openssl 1.1.0 (openssl-SNAP-20160331)

on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP3, when running

./config && make test

I get errors like:
Compilation failed in require at ../test/recipes/90-test_v3name.t line 3.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ../test/recipes/90-test_v3name.t
line 3.
# Looks like your test died before it could output anything.
../test/recipes/90-test_v3name............dubious                           

        Test returned status 255 (wstat 65280, 0xff00)
FAILED--72 test scripts could be run, alas--no output ever seen
make: *** [test] Error 255

runing the tests manually shows that the Test::More module is of an
older version than expected:
/tmp/tmp.COsNuvUJPw/openssl-SNAP-20160331> perl
test/recipes/90-test_v3name.t
Test::More version 0.96 required--this is only version 0.72 at
/tmp/tmp.COsNuvUJPw/openssl-SNAP-20160331/test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test.pm
line 6.

Of course I could install that perl module locally in my $HOME to get
the test running.
But is this a hard requirement or could a lower version do the job as well?

The same problem on Scientific Linux  release 6.7 (Carbon), a RHEL clone:
../test/recipes/01-test_abort.t ........... Test::More version 0.96
required--this is only version 0.92 at ../test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test.pm
line 6.

On Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS all the tests ran through happily.
