Here are the release notes:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
fetchmail-6.4.38 (not yet released):

# BREAKING CHANGES:
* Tighten OpenSSL and wolfSSL version requirements again. See README.SSL.
  Distributors providing older versions that they backport security fixes for 
  may want to patch socket.c but remember to redirect support to your 
  distribution's support channels.
  The fetchmail maintainer only supports functionally unmodified builds with 
  publicly available SSL/TLS library versions.
  fetchmail will refuse to build against OpenSSL 1.0.2 older than 1.0.2u,
  or wolfSSL older than 5.6.2. It will warn about OpenSSL older than 3.0.9,
  or between 3.1.0 and 3.1.4, or wolfSSL older than 5.6.6.

# TRANSLATIONS: language translations were updated by these fine people:
(in reverse alphabetical order of language codes):
* ru:    Kirill Isakov [Russian]
* eo:    Keith Bowes [Esperanto]
