 Replying to [comment:3 nickm]:
 > If you run that command line, but add "-L/usr/pkg/lib" right after the
 "gcc", does it start working?
 Yes it does...

 > The output of configure, when it talks about openssl
 Yep...uses /usr/lib version rather than /usr/pkg/lib

 >If so, you could probably work around this issue by specifying
 LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib" manually when you run configure.

 First I assumed you meant to set that variable in my environment...
 I already have:
 LD_LIBRARY_PATH (/usr/local/lib /usr/pkg/lib /usr/pkg/lib/mysql)
 LD_RUN_PATH     (/usr/local/lib /usr/pkg/lib /usr/pkg/lib/mysql)

 now I added:
 LDFLAGS -L/usr/pkg/lib

 and run configure and it still thinks openssl is in /usr/lib

 then I tried: ./configure --with-libevent-dir=/usr/pkg
 LDFLAGS='-L/usr/pkg/lib'
 and it still thinks openssl is in /usr/lib

 This gets a bit beyond my knowledge. I do not know how to set search paths
 for configure. Ideally we need to tell it to look in /usr/pkg first then
 /usr for both libraries and includes. Specific examples would be helpful?

 I need to see if I can make the whole compile work as a package...this
 would be cleaner since a package make includes some built in mechanisms
 for dealing with specific package dependencies....

 I'll see if I can hack on that this weekend...even if you can show me how
 to patch the current build process...package-afying this is probably the
 most valuable think I can try if I can find the time to fumble with it...
