I resolved this issue. When building OpenSSL for FIPS, in addition to adding the fips parameter to the Configure command, you must also add the --with-fipslibdir and --with-fipsdir switches so the necessary files can be located. If you do not, the compiles report no error, but the link fails as indicated.
