This is a bad idea, because it's possible that the libssl.so in
/usr/local/lib might be used by other software, and Duncan's intention
was to only have one binary use the alternative openssl. If you change
the default libssl.so to another version, it's *possible* to break
anything that linked to it before. (Now, I suspect it probably wouldn't
have any problems since it's only two minor releases away, but breaking
openssl is a *bad* idea, particularly if you like things like ssh).
