valgrind warnings about branching on uninitialized data in OpenSSL

Description

​https://tahoe-lafs.org/buildbot-pycryptopp/builders/Ruben%20Fedora%20syslib/builds/50/steps/test%20valgrind/logs/valgrind

I would assume that these are just more of the tradition of using uninitialized memory in your stateful ambient PRNG, and nothing to worry about, but it might be nice to get a little more information about them and it might help configure our builds to suppress these warnings, so I asked Ruben to install the OpenSSL debug lib.

Ruben told me in email that the version was openssl-1.0.1-0.1.beta2.fc17.x86_64 and that he has now installed the openssl-debuginfo package.
