Comment (by eirnym@…):

 The rtmpdump depends on OpenSSL with GPL-2+ licence, so linking with
 OpenSSL doesn't add any restrictions for ffmpeg itself.

 I know people who want licence purity on their systems and they don't want
 OS on their computers like Mac OS X or *BSD.

 I don't want to build anything which duplicates functionality if it
 possible: I don't like GnuTLS when it possible to replace it with OpenSSL,
 I don't like build SVN client if I we don't need to link with SVN
 libraries, etc.
