spamc reporting wrong (onconsistent) ssl lib version

[OpenMacNews <Op...@speakeasy.net>]

hi all,

i'm bldg latest SA-head on OSX 10.4.2 .

after an error-free build/install, config'ing w/ an external ssl:

    % which openssl
        /usr/local/ssl/bin/openssl
    % openssl version
        OpenSSL 0.9.7g 11 Apr 2005

i note:

    % otool -L /usr/local/spamassassin/bin/spamc
        /usr/local/ssl/lib/libssl.0.9.7.dylib (compatibility version 0.9.0, 
current version 0.9.7)
        /usr/local/ssl/lib/libcrypto.0.9.7.dylib (compatibility version 0.9.0, 
current version 0.9.7)
        /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current 
version 88.0.0)
        /usr/lib/libmx.A.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 
92.0.0)

as config'd/expected,

BUT, 'spamc' reports:

    % which spamc
        /usr/local/spamassassin/bin/spamc
    % spamc -V
        SpamAssassin Client version 3.1.0-pre4-r208823
          compiled with SSL support (OpenSSL 0.9.7b 10 Apr 2003)


where's spamc getting 'it's' "SSL support" version ... and why is it 
inconsistent w/ the actual libs used.

where/what else to check?

thx!
