Me too!  I just went through the same exercise and wouldn't have had a clue 
had you not asked yesterday on the OpenSSL user list.  Thanks!

What I did was:

./config
./make
./make linux-shared
./make install

and then I hand copied in the shared dynamic libraries into /usr/lib

   cp /usr/downloads/openssl-0.9.6/libssl.so libssl.so.0.9.6
   cp /usr/downloads/openssl-0.9.6/libcrypto.so libcrypto.so.0.9.6

Finally, I changed the symbolic links in /usr/lib to point to the newer 
libraries.

   libssl.so -> /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.6
   libssl.so.0 -> /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.6

   libcrypto.so -> /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.6
   libcrypto.so.0 -> /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.6

running ssh

   # ssh
   Usage: ssh [options] host [command]
   Options:
     -l user     Log in using this user name.
    ...
   #

Woohoo!

Now, how do we get this documented for both SSL and SSH users?

Thanks again for asking!
