I'm not sure what you mean by "linked", but they are in the
same directory as libcurl - here's a Unix ls -l listing:

These are the libraries that were (very usefully) included in the
package made by Mike. I've merely moved them all into the directory
that VS picks up via the LIBPATH directive.

However, the symbols that are not found are those from libcurl rather
than from ssleay32, so I'm not sure that helps anyway.
