OpenSSH uses openssl to a great extent, however when you do

ldd ssh

you get:
        libssh.so.2 => /usr/lib/libssh.so.2 (0x28078000)
        libcrypto.so.2 => /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.2 (0x280a9000)
        libutil.so.3 => /usr/lib/libutil.so.3 (0x28161000)
        libz.so.2 => /usr/lib/libz.so.2 (0x2816a000)
        libc.so.4 => /usr/lib/libc.so.4 (0x28177000)

or in earlier versions:
        libcrypto.so.2 => /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.2 (0x2808a000)
        libutil.so.3 => /usr/lib/libutil.so.3 (0x28143000)
        libz.so.2 => /usr/lib/libz.so.2 (0x2814b000)
        libc.so.4 => /usr/lib/libc.so.4 (0x28158000)


so my question is:
how is the connection made to libssl?
is it via libcrypto?
is it statically built into the ssh binary?

If I upgrade openssl due to teh security upgrade, 
should I recompile ssh as well?
