Comment:

 This is by design. MacPorts will always attempt to upgrade dependencies of
 a port first.

 In this special case, updating OpenSSL is a very good idea, due to the
 security fixes the 1.0.2e release has. In the general case, your
 workaround does not work. Since OpenSSL minor releases are binary-
 compatible, your workaround is fine for the specific case of OpenSSL. Note
 that the next selfupdate will likely revert your change to the Portfile.

 This is not something we are going to fix. If you want openssl 1.0.2e to
 build on your system, run `sudo port extract openssl`, cd to `port work
 openssl`, edit the file mentioned in #49916 to explicitly disable addx
 support and continue by running `sudo port upgrade openssl`.
