With OpenSSL 3.0.0-alpha14 several tests for TLS 1.0 and 1.1 connections are failing handshake with "[SSL: TLSV1_ALERT_INTERNAL_ERROR] tlsv1 alert internal error". OpenSSL is configured with default security level "1". Tests are only passing with @SECLEVEL=0.

I think the security default callback refuses NID_sha1 and NID_sha1_md5 SSL_SECOP_SIGALG_SUPPORTED because their security bits are lower than minimum of 80 bits.
