Unless it broke during the last changes, on the current snapshot
version,
on a linux (well, gcc/binutils) installation:
./config ...
make linux-shared
This will create libssl.so.0.x.x and libcrypto.so.0.x.x and a bunch of
symlinks that should be installed into /usr/[local/]lib/, or any dir
listed in /etc/ld.so.conf.

For HPUX I can't tell you. Please take a look into the linux-shared
target in Makefile, consult your cc/ld manuals, see whether this trick
can be ported to non-gcc systems, and report back to the list.
