Hello 

When building the wvstreams package the configure script fails with the message 
that I need openssl >= 0.9.7; however, I have already installed 0.9.8d 
following the instructions in BLFS.

I examined the log and the configure script and found that the test for 
"SSL_has_matching_session_id in -lssl" is failing and this causes with_ssl to 
be set to "no". It appears to be generating a test file which it builds and 
executes for this test.

Here is the test file it generates:

#line $LINENO "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
/* Override any gcc2 internal prototype to avoid an error. */
#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C"
#endif
/* We use char because int might match the return type of a gcc2
   builtin and then its argument prototype would still apply. */
char SSL_has_matching_session_id ();
#ifdef F77_DUMMY_MAIN
#  ifdef __cplusplus
     extern "C"
#  endif
   int F77_DUMMY_MAIN() { return 1; }
#endif
int
main ()
{
SSL_has_matching_session_id ();
  ;
  return 0;
}

Any ideas as to what is causing this to fail? Do I need to recompile openssl 
with a different set of configure options?

Thanks in advance,
Walter
