I should have said this was SPARC.

Sort of good. (I'm not sure about the GPL aspect of this), but many
systems will not have this by default.

I'll give that a go.

Really though, I think there should be a way to specify a place to
look for headers - not just for SSL, but perhaps something that could
work for any library. Some of the optional libraries that can improve
Sage (but are not Sage options) might be installed by one user without
root access.
