#3134: tor cannot statically link openssl on windows

 If I try to compile tor like so:

 ./configure --enable-static-libevent --enable-static-openssl --enable-
 static-zlib --with-libevent-dir=/path/to/lib --with-zlib-dir=/path/to/lib
 --with-openssl-dir=/path/to/lib --prefix=/path/to/prefix

 I get a bunch of angry errors and tor refuses to build.

 I've tried this a few ways -- statically linking libz into openssl,
 dynamically linking it, etc. And I can statically link everything on OS X
 and Linux with basically the same command line, so it seems to be a
 Windows-specific thing that I am just not able to see. I've attached the
 config.log too, even though it configures fine, just to make sure someone
 can reproduce it.
