That's part of the problem.  The port bumped the shared library
version, even though it installed ABI-compatible library.  Moreover,
it bumped it to a new version number that was only 1 higher, almost
designed to cause trouble :-)  

If all OpenSSL-using ports used `-rpath', then this wouldn't be a
problem.  But that is kind of a burden.

Cheers,
