a few updates here ...

i've been going through the list and picked the ones which are reachable from 
the outside first but
also gave gftp a try. gftp and rsync turned out to be cases which don't take 
openssl 3 by just
settings the usual as well as specific environment variables and don't offer 
related build options
either. with the mediator set to 3.1 however they worked fine. of course that's 
a flaw in the
buildsystem somewhere but these are 2 examples where the additional effort 
wouldn't be justified as
far as i'm concerned.
uw imap and mongodb 4.4 don't support ssl 3 and uw imap's last releaase was in 
2011 anyway. mongodb
would have to be updated to at least 6.0.7 for ssl 3 support.
Which would be good since 4.4 is EOL end of October anyway. Jumping a couple of major versions is no problem with a restore procedure. In Place it will refuse to start and people will have to revert to older boot environments to start it. It is however a package we need to build manually as it requires AVX support in the System which our current buildserver does not have. But we can work around that.
the last relevant one from the list was proftpd. however, the current version 
1.3.8b uses dprintf()
There is a pending patch or even RTI for that open, https://www.illumos.org/issues/16151 WOuld be a good reason to push the illumos people a bit :)
which indiana doesn't have so that would have to be patched first before trying 
ssl things. the
buildsystem though, like gftp and rsync, only has a general --enable-openssl 
option which could
cause similar problems as with rsync and gftp.
also on the list is tor. that i didn't try because i'm not sure how much that's 
actually used and
whether we wanna keep it given its reputation. personally i like tor and use it 
quite often for
"normal" browsing just because of the anonymity. but that's not my call so ...
If you use it on OpenIndiana that is good enough for me to keep it :)
