The patch I supplied was for curl, BTW, not OpenSSL. There's a section
in the INSTALL document on compiling with OpenSSL. Briefly, set
PKG_CONFIG_PATH appropriately, use "--with-ssl" on the configure command
line, and make sure pkg-config is present. Linking statically with
OpenSSL isn't supported by default. You can just link dynamically and
then set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the new OpenSSL libraries.
