You're trying to install to the source directory, right?  Don't do
that.  If you want the installation in /citec/openssl-0.9.4/, extract
the source in some other directory.  (And if you don't want to install
to a "standard" location, you might prefer not to install the library
at all.  Various programs use the .h and .a files directly from the
source directory.)
