Honestly, I didn't check without ssl since openssl/openssh are always the first 
things I install.  I did note that:

checking for SSL... configure: error: The flag --with-openssl is deprecated, 
use 
--with-ssl

Looking through my log, openssl may not be a dependency.  There is a library 
built, libtaocrypt.a, in a directory extra/yassl.

The string lssl and lcrypto are not in the log.

In the tests, I see

main.func_encrypt              [ pass ]             38
main.func_encrypt_nossl        [ skipped ]   Test requires: 'not_openssl'
main.have_openssl_basic        [ pass ]            244

I can't really tell for sure if mysql has its own openssl code or not.  My best 
guess is not.
