Those are made with a different openssl.spec, *made by RedHat*.
They've done quite a bit of work with that before OpenSSL had any
shared library support at all.  I don't recall the specific details,
and will probably not have the time to investigate further before the
end of september.  All I know is that there have been some reports
saying that trying to replace libcrypto.so.2 and libssl.so.2 with
something that one has compiled oneself just doesn't work.

It's possible this has changed.

Unfortunately, I'm not a RedHat user, and I don't have any RedHat
system to play with, so I can't try doing this myself.
