So what you are essentially implying is: if you want to use Courier, and you have OpenSSL installed, you better use it.
More or less, that's how things are working now. It's also a gentle nudge towards using a more responsible, maintainable, environment.
If you are building stuff on your production box, you're nuts.
You should be building stuff on a separate, development box, where all runtime and development libraries are fully installed and available. That's where you will unit test, troubleshoot, and beta test whatever stuff you build. Once you're satisfied that you have a working setup, package it up and move it to the production box, which only has the minimum runtime libraries. No compiler, no development files.
