While it took quite a while to figure it out, the patch to make it
compile again against OpenSSL 1.1.0 is surprisingly tiny:

I've got one (currently non-productive) Xymon server on a Raspberry Pi
running(*) Debian Unstable with that patch and xymonnet properly
reported SSL certificate and https:// URL states so far. So I believe,
that patch is sufficient and working, despite I have not much of an
idea what it actually does. I took the idea for the patch from here:
https://github.com/bukka/php-src/commit/0598a8da2bc005b3a0be2801033b5347020f8316#diff-69bad938d17f4283faa5f7fea17fa627L2174
I would be happy if you could integrate the patch into the (probably
upcoming) 4.3.28 release to allow others to compile Xymon against
OpenSSL 1.1.0+. (And to spread it further to get more testing. :-)
(*) It's currently running with OpenSSL 1.0.2j though, but that proves
that it's at least also backward compatible to 1.0.2. As soon as
Debian Unstable switches to OpenSSL 1.1.0b or later, I'll continue
to test it with that version.
