Even if base OpenSSL used 12, don't you potentially have the same problem if 
the port bumps their version sometime later?

And do you have a problem if a port library is built against a port OpenSSL, 
and another port library is built against base OpenSSL, then an app links to 
both libraries, getting both base and port OpenSSL's linked in the same image?  
It seems like you have to ensure that when you specify WITH_OPENSSL, that all 
your ports are [re]built this way, no?  I guess base OpenSSL is really no 
different, all ports need to be built using the same library, whether it's base 
or some other port version.
