That sounds like the runtime linker path problem I described in my
first reply.   Is the OpenSSL 3.2.2-dev version of libcrypto in your
runtime linker path? I assume that's in /usr/local/lib?  Does
/usr/local/bin/openssl actually work?

You can use --with-rpath in your configure invocation to set -R/-rpath
(exact details will vary by system and/or linker, for  GNU ld, that
would be --with-rpath=-Wl,-rpath,).
