There's the libssl package in Debian.  aptitude tells me

Description: SSL shared libraries
libssl and libcrypto shared libraries needed by programs like apache-ssl, telnet and openssh

  It is part of the OpenSSL implementation of SSL.

Is that at all relevant?
Take a hard look at licensing.

libssl was (last time I looked) 4-clause bsd licensed (bsd + advertising), and thus triggered the license incompatibility mode of the GPL.

There might be some GNU/GPL rewrite of it - at least something along that lines was planned. But given that other libssl-using GPL sources aren't build against such a replacement in the Debian repository (eg. netatalk), I might be mistaken on it (or that project just isn't far enough yet)
