The motivating feature here is the "checksum of config files" stuff. I voted for linking with crypto if available, since without it we just check file sizes, and as Phil showed, that doesn't catch too much. > Maybe you could > make "--without-openssl" do the right thing, though, for those of > us who would rather not bother. I'm the one who pushed for the "include if you find -lcrypto", but I also don't want to further complicate the build process for MPI. Presented with this, guess we should go back to the old way and make it mandatory that people request --with-openssl.
