 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.
 
        Cheers,
