Kevin, make your life easy. Install openssl in a non-standard location and
compile Curl against that. I did that earlier this week with curl-7.10.2
compiled against openssl-0.9.6g. First, I used rpm -qa | grep -i curl or
rpm -qf /usr/bin/curl (an old version was installed on this particular box)
to locate the rpm. I then built openssl from source (configure with
the --prefix and --openssldir set to non-standard locations). Then when
configuring curl, set --with-ssl to the --prefix from the openssl install).

You'll also end up with curl compiled against the latest openssl instead of
0.9.6b. You can always try replacing that version, but I don't recall if
there are any consequences.
