[issue40515] test_ssl.py hangs with SSL 1.1 built with no threads

It not about what I wish or wish not to do.

Python requires thread-safe libraries. A library without proper locking and thread safety is no longer safe to use without great effort and careful locking in the glue code. A non-threaded OpenSSL build will lead to memory corruption and eventually crash the interpreter.
