The Coolstack and the Webstack both use the system's SSL bindings.
Coolstack symlinks it:         libssl.so.0.9.7 =>       
/usr/sfw/lib/libssl.so.0.9.7

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 28 Jul 13  2009 /opt/coolstack/lib/libssl.so.0.9.7 -> 
/usr/sfw/lib/libssl.so.0.9.7

while webstack links it directly:         libcrypto.so.0.9.7 =>    
/usr/sfw/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.7
