So:

  mariadb55-client builds ok

  mysql55-client fails due to openssl

I have marked mysql55-client as BROKEN.

Since it doesn't work, there's been no fix in over a month, it's
EOL anyway, and the mariadb version seems ok, I'll remove mysql55 in 7
days, unless someone fixes it or gives rationale why it's not just
pointless and confusing.
