git 2.54 fails to build for rhel 6 (2.53 builds fine)

["Азат Усманов" <usmanov@ieml.ru>]

Hi everyone! I have noticed a problem when trying to build latest git 2.54 in rhel 6,(2.53 builds fine ) nothing has changed on this machine  since I successfully installed 2.53 . My openssl version is 3.5.6. Any Ideas? Below is the log
