And the tradeoff for supplying private copies of newer OpenSSL libs with the Pythons installed by python.org OS X installers is that we would then need to solve the CA management problem for all users of those Pythons. So far there hasn't been a good solution to that problem so we have elected to continue to use the least unattractive solution of continuing to use the Apple-supplied libs with the 10.6+ installer variants (Issue17128). Eventually, we will have to bite the bullet and come up with s better solution as Apple will likely eventually stop shipping OpenSSL libs altogether.
