I don't see the point of changing this.  First, other areas of
fe-secure-openssl.c use a harcoded value of -1 as error codes, so the
current style is more consistent.  Second, if we were to change that,
why are you not changing one call of pthread_mutex_lock()?

Hi,
Looking at the -1 return, e.g.

            pq_lockarray = malloc(sizeof(pthread_mutex_t) * CRYPTO_num_locks()); 

when pq_lockarray is NULL. We can return errno.

I didn't change call to pthread_mutex_lock() because PGTHREAD_ERROR() is used which aborts.

Cheers
