The downside of this approach is that it renders nss_ldap and pam-ldap
unusuable. If your (base) sshd is linked against base libcrypto and then
pulls in nss_ldap/pam-ldap, openldap-client and openssl, all from pkgsrc,
you have one binary with two libcrypto's, making sshd crash.
Sure, you can avoid that hassle by using nslcd (hint: pkg/49804).
