This issue reveiled a more general problem, which applies to the tests as well:
unless openssl is installed, the openssl app must not use any preinstalled
configuration file. This holds in particular when the preinstalled configuration
file load providers, which caused the above failure.
The most consistent way to achieve this behaviour is to set the OPENSSL_CONF
environment variable to the correct location in the util/wrap.pl perl wrapper.
