SSL* are not meant to be set by the user.  They are read-only variables
and explains why they are set using "=" instead of "?=".  If you wish
to customize the PKG_SYSCONFDIR for openssl, then please set:

	PKG_SYSCONFDIR.openssl=	${PKG_SYSCONFBASE}/openssl

in /etc/mk.conf.  This will cascade and set SSLCERTS and SSLKEYS to the
correct values.

A more pertinent PR would be one that requests that the default
PKG_SYSCONFDIR for openssl on NetBSD be changed from /etc/openssl to
the usual pkgsrc defaults.
