makemkvcon 1.16.5 crashes on FreeBSD

[Zirias]

I know this isn't supported anyways, but as it's the first version just crashing on FreeBSD, I thought you might have an idea which change might have caused that. The only thing I could think of for "debugging" is a "truss" log (similar to "strace" on linux) which might at least give an idea what the process is doing before crashing:

(the "linux_" prefixes are used by FreeBSD to distinguish Linux emulation syscalls from regular ones…)

This problem unfortunately persists in 1.16.7. So far, the last version working on FreeBSD is 1.16.4

I found a somewhat obscure solution! Compiling with -DFORCE_OPENSSL_NO_EC solves the problem. Not sure whether this problem is specific to FreeBSD's Linux compatibility or maybe to the OpenSSL version in Centos 7 ... just leaving it here for reference!
