Armin, I had to build shared libraries on hpux11. I'm sure the specifics are different, but the concepts may be the same. First, all the source needed to be compiled as position independent code (pic), which required the +z switch on my compiler. Once the make process is complete, there are two static libraries, libcrypto.a and libssl.a, which contain all the object files. For some reason, when I tried to use them directly to create the shared libraries, the linker complained, so I copied the static libraries to a subdirectory and extracted all the object files using ar -x libcrypto.a. I then could create the shared library as follows: ld -b -o libcrypto.sl *.o. I deleted all the .o files and then did the same for libssl.a. A little labor intensive, but it worked. Hope this is helpful.
