One thought is that the script is failing because of a new compiler.
Check to see if SSL_has_matching_session_id is indeed available with:
nm /usr/lib/libssl.so|grep match
If it is in your library (it is in openssl-0.9.8d), then the configure
script is broken. wvstreams has not been updated in at least two
years. Edit the configure script to ingore this test.
