OpenSSL in  unstable does not support  TLS 1.2 either. I  think that the
solution is for a future OpenSSL  version (maybe TLS 1.2 is supported in
1.1 but I am not sure).

Yes, you  are right. Your advice  still works since without  TLS 1.2 the
only mitigation available  is to fallback to RC4  and that's what happen
with the provided configuration.
