 I realized the first part of the problem was solved by putting:
 
      .include "../../devel/dlcompat/buildlink3.mk"
 
 as the next-to-last line in security/openssl/Makefile.
 
 But linking still fails.  I've now realized that there need to be some
 "-ldl" directives sprinkled around in the distribution Makefiles, but
 I haven't been able to make heads or tails of where they should go.
