that's the default, right.

well, that's the first cut of the configure option - I may have
made an error (will check).  The option --with-ssl accepts an
(optional) parameter, e.g.,
        --with-ssl=/usr/local/ssl
should be the same as
        --with-ssl

(the config.log file will show exactly what went wrong)
