 nodejs declares a dependency on openssl and nodejs 0.6.x does indeed use
 MacPorts openssl:

 {{{
 $ port -q installed nodejs
   nodejs @0.6.19_0+python27+ssl (active)
 $ port -q deps nodejs

 Library Dependencies: python27, openssl

 }}}

 nodejs-devel also declares a dependency on openssl, but does not actually
 link with it:

 {{{
 $ port -q installed nodejs-devel
   nodejs-devel @0.7.9_0+python27+ssl (active)
 $ port -q deps nodejs-devel
 Build Dependencies:   pkgconfig
 Library Dependencies: python27, openssl
 $ otool -L $(which node)
 /opt/local/bin/node:
         /System/Library/Frameworks/Carbon.framework/Versions/A/Carbon
 (compatibility version 2.0.0, current version 152.0.0)
 /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/CoreServices
 (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 44.0.0)
         /usr/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current
 version 7.9.0)
         /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current
 version 830.0.0)
         /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current
 version 125.2.11)
 }}}

 So either we should drop the openssl dependency, or we should fix it to
 use MacPorts openssl again. Unless there's a specific reason why nodejs
 does not like the version of openssl that's in MacPorts today, I would
 think we should be using the MacPorts version, like other ports do.
