Any particular reason to use a local version?

The search path contains an installed openssl (in /usr/bin, /usr/lib,
/usr/include -- yes /usr/bin which has the actual dll which in Windows
must be executable) were the headers come from (current version is
openssl-1.1.1f-1) and as your parameter specified a locally installed
[open]ssl which is version 0.9.8.

You don't need a local install, but to compile curl you do need to
additionally install Cygwin's openssl-devel-1.1.1f-1 . But you can use
either version by modifying the search path.

Actually you can check all the above by looking into config.log to see
where things come from.
