Problem with xmlsec

Hi!

I'm a long time happy user of macports, who now has a problem.
On a new, pristine you could say, machine running 10.6.2 I've tried to install xmlsec.

The installation as such works without a flaw but when I try to encrypt/decrypt with /opt/local/bin/xmlsec1 I get the complaint:

Error: unable to load xmlsec-openssl library. 

A couple of lines higher up I get the impression that it tries to load libxmlsec1-openssl.so

In /opt/local/lib there are different versions of libxmlsec1-openssl:

-rwxr-xr-x  2 root  admin  1435136  1 Mar 15:26 /opt/local/lib/libxmlsec1-openssl.1.2.13.dylib
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  admin       31  1 Mar 15:26 /opt/local/lib/libxmlsec1-openssl.1.dylib -> libxmlsec1-openssl.1.2.13.dylib
-rw-r--r--  2 root  admin  5486024  1 Mar 15:26 /opt/local/lib/libxmlsec1-openssl.a
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  admin       31  1 Mar 15:26 /opt/local/lib/libxmlsec1-openssl.dylib -> libxmlsec1-openssl.1.2.13.dylib
-rwxr-xr-x  2 root  admin     1026  1 Mar 15:26 /opt/local/lib/libxmlsec1-openssl.la
-rwxr-xr-x  2 root  admin   421672  1 Mar 15:26 /opt/local/lib/libxmlsec1.1.2.13.dylib
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  admin       23  1 Mar 15:26 /opt/local/lib/libxmlsec1.1.dylib -> libxmlsec1.1.2.13.dylib
-rw-r--r--  2 root  admin   659960  1 Mar 15:26 /opt/local/lib/libxmlsec1.a
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  admin       23  1 Mar 15:26 /opt/local/lib/libxmlsec1.dylib -> libxmlsec1.1.2.13.dylib
-rwxr-xr-x  2 root  admin      941  1 Mar 15:26 /opt/local/lib/libxmlsec1.la

But as you can see none of them ends with '.so' .
I've used DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH to ensure that it tries /opt/local/lib first, but to no avail.

Could it be that LTDL_SHLIB_EXT is not set properly, in that case how do I ackomplish that ?
