 This is really a misfeature in ld, which seems to look for .dylib libraries
 along the whole library path before it bothers looking for .a libraries.  This

 It's possible that something similar is needed for shared library support
 as well.  That hasn't been well tested yet.

+Another solution that many seem to recommend is to move the libraries
+/usr/lib/libcrypto.0.9.dylib, /usr/lib/libssl.0.9.dylib to a different
+directory, build and install OpenSSL and anything that depends on your

 As long as Apple doesn't fix the problem with ld, this problem building
 OpenSSL will remain as is.

+While running tests, running a parallell make is a bad idea.  Many test
+scripts use the same name for output and input files, which means different

+
+The solution is simple for now: don't run parallell make when testing.
