Comment(by joh.dokler@…):

 The configure for the couchdb is run as a macports user. When checking for
 the ssl library using:

 has_crypto=`${ERL} -eval "case application:load(crypto) of ok -> ok; _ ->
 exit(no_crypto) end." -noshell -s init stop`

 the erl returns the following error:

 =ERROR REPORT==== 13-Aug-2011::13:58:20 ===
 file:path_eval([".","/var/root"],".erlang"): permission denied

 Which indicates that the erl tries to eval the .erlang init file inside
 /var/root. Which is of course is inaccessible to the macports user.
