We (sadly as in royal we) have now pushed a fix for this. It simply
added /usr/local/opt/openssl/ to the search paths for "lib" and
"include" and this works fine with Homebrew. If anyone is using Macports
or whatever it's called and this still doesn't work - please shout and
we'll look into it (you'll need to supply some information about how to
fix it as well - royal we can't be arsed to try it out).
To achieve this we had to disable pkg-config by default, because it's
broken. Actually we can't remember having seen a non-broken pkg-config
in our entire lifes so it's probably a good thing in most cases but it
might break SOME other system (like, who knows what - Sparc with GNU
addons?) so you could need to add --enable-pkg-config to the configure
options on such system. We'd be interested in getting to know of that as
well. Not wildly, but at least mildly.
