If you installed openssl-engine-0.9.6g.tar.gz then you have the engine
stuff which is intended to interface with a hardware crypto device. If
you installed openssl-0.9.6g.tar.gz, you shouldn't have the engine stuff.

You might want to hunt around on your system for an include file called
openssl/engine.h, because that's what curl is looking for. It might
have been left behind by a previous install of the openssl-engine. It
ought be OK to rename/remove it.
