Kannel does not require OpenSSL. But if you use a recent version of
Cygwin, you can install this too via Cygwin's setup.exe installation
process.

the /cgi-bin/sendsms is an URI within the HTTP servers. They are *not*
particular scripts that are executed. Don't think of an Apache cgi-bin
directory where you place a Perl (or whatever) script.

you should peek insde the code (gw/dlr.[ch]) in case the documentation
is not providing answers. And then, provide us a patch for the
userguide ;)
