Regarding the last libav discussion I think we should also go with a
"libressl" USE flag instead of creating a virtual that makes handling
SUBSLOTs impossible.
If libressl and openssl would have matching ABIs, that wouldn't be
necessary and you could what virtual/libudev does, i.e. explicit
subslot deps.

*if* I'm not sure they will even though that's the plan. If you look in the libressl overlay, you'll see lots of patches to make big ticket items like apache play nice with libressl. These patches involve things like

+#ifndef HAVE_SSL_CTX_USE_CERTIFICATE_CHAIN
int SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain(SSL_CTX *, char *, int, pem_password_cb *);
+#else
+ int _SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain(SSL_CTX *, char *, int, pem_password_cb *);
+#endif

which points to the differences in functions are being exported by the two. This makes me lean towards a USE flag which can also be tied to applying patches rather than a virtual which is better suited for simple drop in substitutions.
