The mutex callback calls are all done from inside OpenSSL. It seems unlikely
to have such a mistake if you use a recent library version, but I can't be
sure of that of course.

If this is decently repeatable with a recent OpenSSL I guess it could be an
idea to take it to the next level: build your own OpenSSL lib with debug
option enabled to get a full and detail back trace from the crash and then
approach the OpenSSL team and ask for further assistance.
