I've updated the version of OpenSSL to 0.9.7g-1. This also includes the
openssl-devel package.
This is a upstream bug fix update. The Cygwin version has a minor tweak
applied which was necessary to resolve a build conflict. The patch is
already sent upstream.
Official release message:

The OpenSSL project team is pleased to announce the release of
version 0.9.7g of our open source toolkit for SSL/TLS. This new
OpenSSL version is mainly a bugfix release and incorporates changes
and bugfixes to the toolkit, but is also contains the new processing
of proxy certificates (RFC 3820). For a complete list of changes,

The most significant changes are:
