Why?

God, I've missed you :)

Why are you not using Debian's OpenSSL package?

Cos Apache wouldn't compile with it

And why do you want to compile Apache? Debian also has a perfectly fine Apache package.

The standard OpenSSL library does not get installed in /usr/local. This
must be some custom version of OpenSSL that you installed, and it's not
built correctly. OpenSSL must be built as a shared library, not as a
static library.

I'm starting to think it may be the version/installation of make

No, it's not.

that's the issue - postfix is choking as well (but not on the TLS).

Maybe, but if the compile gets to the linking stage, it'll choke on it in exactly the same way.

You need to clean up your system and remove all duplicate libraries and
binaries that you installed yourself, that conflict with existing
Debian packages, and are giving you these problems for no good reason.
Debian has perfectly working OpenSSL runtime and development libraries,
and there is no good reason to waste your time installing some mutated
version of OpenSSL into /usr/local.

Just use the standard Debian software libraries to build your code.

Sam - tbh, if that's your opinion, I'm inclined to go with it. And whilst it's not your problem, what will happen to Apache if I rip out the OpenSSL?

Debian should not let you rip out openssl if you have Apache installed, because Apache requires OpenSSL.
