UPDATE: xmlsec 1.2.9 fails to build (with solution)

[etiffany@…]

The xmlsec port 1.2.9 fails to build under darwinports 1.211. This has several prereqs, including openssl, which all installed fine. However, the configure step for xmlsec seems to fail as follows:

checking for crypto library... configure: error: At least one crypto library should exist for xmlsec1 Error: Target com.apple.configure returned: configure failure: shell command "cd "/opt/local/var/db/dports/build/_opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dports_security_xmlsec/work/xmlsec1-1.2.9" && CC=/usr/bin/gcc-4.0 CPP=/usr/bin/cpp-4.0 CXX=/usr/bin/g++-4.0 ./configure --prefix=/opt/local --with-libxml=/opt/local --with-libxslt=/opt/local --mandir=/opt/local/share/man" returned error 1

It appears that the portfile is missing an optional config arg to indicate the location of the openssl libs.

Here is a diff output of the modified portfile. Note that I added a "--with-openssl=${prefix}" line, but it would probably work to use the Mac OS X provided openssl using "--with-openssl=/usr". However, I didn't attempt this.
