It is not fully configures fault, as I found now way to tell ld
to link with the desired libssl.so it the nubers are equal.
As the port version is newer or equal the version in the base,
linking with libssl.so from the ports is desired.
So if no port is installed everything compiles and links with
the base version, and when the port is installed each port can
link against it.

The version BUMP makes this clear, even if the API is the same.
Otherwise we have to hack about 200 ports to select.

kind regards Dirk
