Sorry to reply to my own post, but someone else might also run into 
this in the future:

Later I discovered that while openssl worked by doing the above 
configure with the --with-openssl-dir=/usr/local/ssl and then make, that 
webrick no longer worked: something about missing symbols in md5.so.  So 
I had to save the openssl.so and then rebuild after doing a clean configure 
without the --with-openssl-dir=/usr/local/ssl and rebuilt & 
reinstalled (making sure to put the saved openssl.so in the right place).  
Now both openssl and webrick seem to work.
