In mk.conf:

PREFER_PKGSRC.openssl=	yes

The pkgsrc guide documents this in the "developer part", which is wrong.
It should rather be in the "user part", in the section about configuring
pkgsrc.

https://www.netbsd.org/docs/pkgsrc/pkgsrc.html#native-or-pkgsrc-preference

I also tried "make help topic=in-tree" and "make help topic=native", but
neither of them was helpful. If you already know how the feature is
named, you can try "make help topic=prefer_pkgsrc", which lists a whole
lot of code instead of clear and concise documentation.
