I'm not aware of any intententional breakage.  I'm pretty sure we would have 
done it at configure time.

I have git head building on several older systems that are still using 1.1
I'm pretty sure that at least one of them is running but I'd have to poke 
around a bit to verify that.

What version of 1.1 is MacPorts using?  Are they doing anything non-standard?

The CMAC stuff was never supported and is now deprecated.  If we are going to 
have troubles like this, that's a likely corner.

Those are underbar symbols.  I don't think we use any of them directly.  
Current man page says:
[big long list]
       functions were renamed to include "get" or "get0" in their names in
       OpenSSL 3.0, respectively. The old names are kept as non-deprecated
       alias macros.
