Thanks very much for the clear replies to my question about how to use
openssl from ports. It looks like it should be straightforward in most
circumstances.  However, unfortunately I seem to have run into exactly
the problem on my system that is described in this PR:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=132819&cat=ports

In particular, scrolling all the way down to the bottom of the PR:

State Changed
From-To:        feedback->closed
By:     marcus
When:   Sat May 9 20:13:52 UTC 2009
Why:    This was caused by linking OpenLDAP to the ports version of OpenSSL. The
pam_ldap module is only supported with OpenLDAP linked to the base
OpenSSL. Switching to base OpenSSL has been known to fix this for one
user.

As the PR advises, switching back to base openssl fixes my problem.

Since I am already using pam_ldap on this system in production, I
don't see any easy way to get security/krb5 installed and working via
ports on the same system since openssl requirements for these things
conflict.  I think my easiest solution is to use a different system
for security/krb5.
