After SSL_CTX is not only containing default settings but hash of sessions, this seems to be thread safe using a locks.

SSL_CTX_add_session
    CRYPTO_THREAD_write_lock(ctx->lock);
    ...
    CRYPTO_THREAD_unlock(ctx->lock);

OpenSSL can be safely used in multi-threaded applications provided that support for the underlying OS threading API is built-in. Currently, OpenSSL supports the pthread and Windows APIs. OpenSSL can also be built without any multi-threading support, for example on platforms that don't provide any threading support or that provide a threading API that is not yet supported by OpenSSL.

Not sure if there could be a pitfall for forking process, better keep the default value as it is.

It seems another option, could be to copy only the X509_store
