Er, which three symbols? I'm not sure that I'm reading the tool properly;
e.g., the 1.0.2 line has "4 removed", which seems to be comparing to
1.0.1u, which is not a fair comparison -- some symbols were added during
the 1.0.1 series, e.g., for CVE fixes, that were also added to the 1.0.2
series, but were not present in 1.0.2<no-letter>.
(BTW I posted to upstream about this at
https://mta.openssl.org/pipermail/openssl-dev/2017-January/009042.html)
