In that case I suspect DEFAULT_LIBPATH is magic to the OS X linker and 
you were just lucky :-)

It looks like the "shared" option is the reason.  If you were to rebuild 
w/out it (and delete the existing libaries from /usr/local/ssl/lib) then 
I strongly suspect you will not see the problem.

It doesn't matter.  findssl.sh's purpose is to show *all* installed 
versions, the order is irrelevant.

usually comes from bad judgement.
