     Huh.  I guess now *I'm* the one who needs a clue.  I stopped building tor
from ports a long time ago.  
     I updated FreeBSD, and I've now tried everything I could think of to get
tor built using the openssl port, barring renaming the base system's version,
but nothing has worked.  Even explicitly specifying
--with-openssl-dir=/usr/local/lib on ./configure, it still links it with the
wrong one:

/usr/local/bin/tor:
	libz.so.4 => /lib/libz.so.4 (0x4817b000)
	libm.so.5 => /lib/libm.so.5 (0x4818d000)
	libevent-1.4.so.3 => /usr/local/lib/libevent-1.4.so.3 (0x481a2000)
	libssl.so.5 => /usr/lib/libssl.so.5 (0x481b7000)
                       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
	libcrypto.so.5 => /lib/libcrypto.so.5 (0x481f7000)
	libthr.so.3 => /lib/libthr.so.3 (0x48346000)
	libc.so.7 => /lib/libc.so.7 (0x4835a000)
	librt.so.1 => /usr/lib/librt.so.1 (0x4845a000)

What, exactly, does the ports subsystem do to make tor build using the openssl
port?
     Any helpful suggestions, other than to build tor from the tor-devel port,
which I have no intention of doing, would be greatly appreciated.  In the
meantime, I no longer have a working tor. :---*(
