I don't think the changes in OpenSSL 3.x are anywhere near as significant
as the changes between Python 2 and Python 3. They seem largely in line
with the kinds of changes that are always required when there's a new
major OpenSSL release (and are far, far less significant than, say, the
differences between the OpenSSL and GnuTLS APIs).
