Remove the config.cache file and then rerun configure ('make distclean' will
do it). The "(cached)" text means that the configure script found the result
to the check in the cache-file, not by actually trying to find it.

This is most likely (as Juan Valentín-Pastrana already pointed out) because
you've run configure once without the --with-ssl option.
