It could be really helpful. Or we can follow svn's lead and hand it
entirely off to the broader community, which proved really effective on
Windows, given the number of distros to now choose between. I haven't seen
similar for RHEL users, for example.

That said, only one major Linux distro (April Ubuntu LTS) is at OpenSSL
1.0.2, which is a necessary part of http/2's special sauce.
