Comment (by kencu):

 Yes, that works. It builds, and links against the system's libcrypto.dylib
 even if openssl is installed, as you would expect.

 So I can put that through. I can't think, though, what we might do to
 prevent `ld64-97` breaking if a user has it installed already against
 openssl 1.0.x. And that would likely be most everyone, of course.

 We could have had `openssl` depend on `openssl10` and have `openssl10` lay
 in some symlinks to provide, for example
 {{{
 /opt/local/lib/libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib
 }}}

 In retrospect, that perhaps would not have been a totally terrible idea.
