Same, and for my case I run several CI jobs to compile/test against different
OpenSSL versions etc.

+1 on adding these, rather than having everyone duplicate the effort. Those
who don't want to use them can disregard them.

Why not compiling with OpenSSL on FreeBSD and macOS? On FreeBSD all you need
is --with-ssl=openssl while on macOS you need to point to the headers and libs
like:
--with-includes=/usr/local/include:/usr/local/opt/openssl/include
--with-libs=/usr/local/libs:/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib
One thing to note for Cirrus on macOS (I've never seen it anywhere else) is
that it intermittently will fail on a too long socketpath:
Unix-domain socket path
"/private/var/folders/wh/z5_y2cv53sg24tzvtw_f_y1m0000gn/T/cirrus-ci-build/src/bin/pg_upgrade/.s.PGSQL.51696"is too long
(maximum103 bytes)
Exporting PGSOCKETDIR can avoid that annoyance.
+ tests_script:
+ - su postgres -c 'ulimit -c unlimited ; ${TIMEOUT_CMD} make -s ${CHECK} ${CHECKFLAGS} -j8'
Don't you need PG_TEST_EXTRA=ssl here to ensure the src/test/ssl tests are run?
