Depends.  Some Linuxen have OpenSSL packages that are made in such a
way that several versions of the run-time library can co-exist side by
side.  On others, I simply dunno.

Another option, if you want to use shared libraries, is to make sure
the installation trees differ, at least for the binaries.  The
configure script for OpenSSL takes a --prefix that you can use for
such purposes.

A third option is to keep the standard OpenSSL in your Linux
installation at 0.9.7, and keep a private build of OpenSSL 0.9.8
against which you link OpenVPN statically.

There are certainly more possiblities.  Only your imagination and
common sense are your limits.

Good luck!
Richard
