Last night I merged OpenSSL 3.0 to main. This, along with the update

ports that need to be updated or unanticipated issues in the base

We need to get this work done so that we can continue moving on with
FreeBSD 14; I apologize for the trouble it might cause in the short
term. Please follow up to report any trouble you encounter.
Not sure where to ask this, following up to this announcement looks like
a reasonable choice.
After updating head to this version I have had some ports provided
software fail with messages including: "Unable to load legacy provider."
Most of the time I am able to workaround it by forcing newer algorithms
via some configuration. Some other times I have no direct control of
what is being asked (like values hardcoded in npm modules)/
This is also happening to me with node, for example, has happened with
RDP (looks like windows by default prefers RC4 for RDP sessions), where
I was able to fix it though.
Question is, does FreeBSD provide this legacy provider module? Or is it
available via ports or some other solution? Or maybe it can be provided
via a port? Would make the transition much easier!
