[Dovecot] Building dovecot with SSL support on Solaris

Hi,

I run alpha3 on Solaris 9, with openssl in /opt.  Here is my
configure for dovecot:

#!/usr/bin/sh
VERSION=1.0-alpha3
CC=gcc CFLAGS="-g -O" CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/openssl/include 
LDFLAGS=-L/opt/openssl/lib \
./configure --prefix=/opt/dovecot.$VERSION --with-ssl=openssl \
--with-ssldir=/opt/openssl/ssl  > configure.out

I also have /opt/openssl/lib dfined in my load path via "crle"
so apps can find it.  That may be your problem.  My output from
"crle":

[3] % crle

Configuration file [version 3]: /var/ld/ld.config
   Default Library Path (ELF): 
/usr/lib:/opt/openssl/lib:/opt/BerkeleyDB/lib:/usr/local/lib
   Trusted Directories (ELF):    /usr/lib/secure  (system default)

Command line:
   crle -c /var/ld/ld.config -l 
/usr/lib:/opt/openssl/lib:/opt/BerkeleyDB/lib:/usr/local/lib
