Cool trick, never though about that.
However that does not help with auxilary tools that are code to use pkg. :(

So in the end I just manually build the pkg port, which will compile
against whatever is available as ssl-lib. Not the best solution, since
next time Bapt releases a new version, the game starts again.

perhaps in this case it is best to move pkg-static to pkg?
and always use a static linked version. It is not like a deamon running
for ever. So the temporary overhead of 4Mb <> 150K code space would be
acceptable.
