Hi Thorsten and all,

AFAIK there is no reply from kbuild people (maybe they missed this bug?).

As for the error itself, let me clarify. The reporter (Dennis) have a build
problem with /usr/local version of OpenSSL library. He installed it
(presumably) alongside with system version (which is installed to /usr),
hence I called the /usr/local version as custom one (IDK if that version
is vanilla OpenSSL or not). Maybe am I missing something?

Thanks.
