>Description:

updated openssl0.96m?? (installed from pkgsrc circa Nov/Dec 2004) -which 
impacted many apps- to openssl0.97enb1.  update successful, the new openssl 
builds and runs fine.

However everything else that uses SSL seems to want libcrypto.300 libraries 
that are no longer present.  pine, lynx, and several others I've tried to build.

Also items that had been working fine like libxml2 and (something else) now 
break with unusual errors.  libxml2 won't config:
------------
checking for mipsel--netbsd-gcc... cc
checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C 
compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.
*** Error code 77

Stop.
make: stopped in /usr/pkgsrc/textproc/libxml2
--------------

but there's nothing logged in config.log about an abort.  Another app fails 
with an assembler error "unknown option sw".  I lost the log for that.

Are there inappropriate processor options present for MIPS?

I don't know if this is send-pr material but I didn't see any other pkgsrc 
issue forum or mailing list.

>How-To-Repeat:

simply try to build openssl-dependant apps from -current, on MIPS.
