[Crypt::SSLeay] [CSL #283637] segfault in make test with 0.9.8a

Sorry if this is already known; I couldn't find anything relevant in either
the archives or a web search.

Running the t/net_ssl test from Crypt-SSLeay-0.51 results in a segfault. The
gdb trace indicates a NULL context being passed to SSL_CTX_ctrl. The full
backtrace is:

#0 SSL_CTX_ctrl (ctx=0x0, cmd=32, larg=4095, parg=0x0) at ssl_lib.c:1061
#1 0x00fb85e8 in XS_Crypt__SSLeay__CTX_new ()

#9 0x08062a83 in S_parse_body ()
#10 0x08064e76 in perl_parse ()
#11 0x0805e4b6 in main ()

Is there a workaround, or a patch that I've missed?

My environment is perl-5.8.6 and openssl-0.9.8a on a tao linux 1.0 system.

Thanks all.
