Comment (by devernay):

 > you can work-around it

 Unfortunately no, unless by "work-around" you mean buying new hardware. In
 which case I don't see the point in supporting any OS version (and thus
 hardware) that was obsoleted by Apple. And we might as well all use
 homebrew, which does exactly that.

 And, by the way, a newer version of OpenSSL is not an OS patch. OpenSSL is
 a userland library.
