One issue with this approach is that any builds on these branches (say
REL_14_STABLE + OpenSSL 1.0.1) would be forced to either upgrade
OpenSSL to at least 3.6 for a minor Postgres update or give up on any
fix we can put on the 14 stable branch for six more months.  None of
these solutions are cool.
