As written in the patch itself:
=========
Links to previously staged 0.9.8* easily otherwise
=========

Without this patch openssl links to any previously staged libssl/libcrypto, if 
that was 0.9.8smth it won't work at all. I have no idea how this patch could 
break the build. You need to carefully review the build log and especially 
compare it between different hosts, as it seems like only Ubuntu 11.10 has the 
problem.
