Comment (by jdemeyer):

 Replying to [comment:38 kini]:
 > even if OpenSSL doesn't exist on the system, aren't we, by hosting the
 SPKG, still "distributing OpenSSL", since the user could just untar the
 SPKG and run `make && sudo make install` in the src directory?
 It could be that we're violating the GPL, yes.  But it's not really clear
 to me, who knows?

 I do think that adding the `ssl` make target doesn't change much, since it
 just automates something which is already possible anyway.
