I'll work on at least openssl, since it is the squeaky wheel at the moment.
I'm having issues with it's makefile at the moment.  Incidentally, why are
you refering to libcrypto, when the error is related to crypto?  Is crypto
somehow contained in the libcrypto file?  I ask because I have a '
libcrypto.sl' file on my system, but no 'crypto.sl', so I sense the
difference may be important to me in some way.  I'll paste the error below,
so you don't have to refer back to my original message to the forum...

I did read your original message, and I apologize for not understanding it.
It's too high-level for me.  For example, when you talk about "disable ipv6
and wide-getaddrinfo so it uses Ruby's built-in getaddrinfo() instead" I as=
k
the question "how?"  I don't believe I have IPv6 enabled, so maybe I'm good
on this step.

     how do I make sure of this?
or
(failing that) that they were at least built as position-independent
code.  Otherwise the HP-UX dynamic linker will choke at runtime because
it can't relocate the static objects HP's linker blindly imports into
shared libraries.

See my old post that I linked to for more details and other tweaks that
need to be made to specific libraries for HP-UX.
