You shouldn't need *that* much luck; the patch seems to work fine 
for me.  However, the htdig 3.1.5 source has one hard-coded image 
link (in CONFIG.in I think) that you'll most likely need to change 
(as well as some other paths via the configure command-line).

If you're running RedHat (and possibly other rpm-based 
distributions), you'll also need the openssl-devel package (which 
is where the headers are).  The openssl stuff comes with redhat 
now, so don't bother grabbing the generic source.  Even better, 
build it from the source rpm; it generates both the openssl and 
openssl-devel rpm packages.

Just my $.02
