I will point out to upstream that it is mostly working for us,  and
ask upstream suggestion about potential problem of parallel build.

if upstream think no obvious potential problem can seen,  I will change
upstream-status to reject and resend the patch.

if upstream recommend not to do parallel build,  I will add something 
like below
to stop parallel build for make install, and resend the patch, but in 
this case,  build
openssl  will very slow.

ifneq ($(filter install,$(MAKECMDGOALS)),)
.NOTPARALLEL:
endif
