The questions that come to my mind are:
1. What version of OpenSSL are you talking about?
2. How did you configure, and what does the following command give?
grep '^PLATFORM' Makefile
The answer to the second question will tell us if OpenSSL was compiled
as a 32-bit or 64-bit application, which I think I recall makes a
significant difference...
