Did that work? How did you build it?

How did you upgrade the library?

Did that occur before too?

No, because that differs between different platforms and build systems.
That's also why docs/INSTALL is bigger than my reply here.

You don't do that, the libcurl headers do that if USE_SSLEAY is defined. You
just make sure that the include path is properly setup to point to the
OpenSSL include directory.
