A few months ago, after upgrading to version 8/amd64 and installing
OpenSSL from ports, I had several ports bomb out when I attempted to
build them. I filed PR's against them and contacted the maintainers. It
appeared that the majority of these port maintainers were not even aware
that their port would not build in the presents of OpenSSL when it was
installed via the ports tree. In any case, I was able to get them to
fix their ports to build correctly.

What amazed me is that this is such a common occurrence that it should
have been contemplated when the port was released. Perhaps the Porters
Handbook should list ports that have a corresponding base system
counterpart; thereby, alerting the maintainer that he/she should test
against both versions to insure full compatibility.
