actually that is a problem with the autoconf version used by postgresql.
the new gcc 3.1 gives out a warning if one of the system include directories
is also given as a -I argument (in this case -I/usr/include).
the autoconf, when compiling the test program, mistakenly interprets
this warning as an error, and decides that the feature is not present,
thus giving that openssl/ssl.h is not present, and in fact it is.
one messy and temporary solution is to compile with 
make CFLAGS=-Wp,-w CXXFLAGS=-Wp,-w
which tells gcc to pass -w to the preprocessor, and -w means inhibit
all warnings. with this, postgresql compiles and works fine.
for 'correct' solution - the configure script for postgresql must be
regenerated from configure.in, using the newer autoconf, but I am not
sure whether that would be successfull, as there were (AFAIK), some
incompatibilities between the two - but i may be wrong.
anyway, HTH
