I tried to find out how to do this by myself but I don't understand very  
well how these flags work.

Could you please provide some examples and I'll test?

Also of note, I was able to get tor-0.2.6.2-alpha to build succesfully on  
a the release version of OpenBSD 5.6 which includes LibreSSL 2.0-something.

When I tried to  build tor-0.2.6.2-alpha against libressl 2.1.2 on the  
same system using ./configure --with-openssl-dir=/usr/local it bails out  
with same the tortls.o error.

Do not know.
