That part in the log has nothing to do with the OpenSSL detetection or use.
It is normal for some configure tests to fail, that was one of those tests.

What is important, is did configure find both the crypto and ssl libs

Show us those lines of the configure output instead.

BTW, you didn't mention what OpenSSL version you're working with here.
