I've committed the change that checks for the headers first, which may
help:

$ ./configure
[...]
checking whether getpgrp requires zero arguments... yes
checking openssl/opensslv.h usability... no
checking openssl/opensslv.h presence... no
checking for openssl/opensslv.h... no
configure: error: *** OpenSSL headers missing - please install first or
check config.log ***

If you'd like to write some text to put in README.platform I'd be happy
to add it.
