The change is here:

<https://github.com/openssl/openssl/commit/0d3b65832c6fa94c1d1cfa2f99335f323e3227c1>

At first glance, I think it's only sockets and terminals. Also at first
glance, it's only including iosbdef.h on Alpha, and otherwise rolling
its own _iosb struct. Surely that should be #ifndef _VAX rather than
#ifdef __alpha?
