find on myh RH7.2 machine returns this:

bowtie: root >> find /lib /usr/lib -name "*ssl*" -exec ls -l {} \;
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           16 Jun  5 18:58 /lib/libssl.so.2 
-> libssl.so.0.9.6b
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       207036 Sep  7  2001

/usr/lib/libssl.so -> ../../lib/libssl.so.0.9.6b

If  "we" run ./configure --with-ssl=/usr/local/ssl   for openssh-3.4p1 
 by default it going to use the ld.so.conf file to search for libs? What 
maybe  happening is openssh configure is looking at the libssl in /lib 
or /usr/lib, and the headers under /usr/local/ssl?

One other note, I just build  openssl-0.9.6e using --prefix=/usr/local 
and it put the include under /user/local/include/openssl
and the libs under /usre/local/lib? You may have to use the 
--with-includedir=/usr/local/include/openssl with ssh?
