Adding AC_LANG_SOURCE where it is required is the right fix. I made that fix on 
other packages.
This is not specific to MacOS, that just depend on the autoconf version 
installed on the system.

With autoconf-2.68 installed and running autoreconf on a package produce 
warning where AC_LANG_SOURCE is missing.
That look to be done properly (I haven't tested the patch)

I confirm openssl no more maintain 0.9.7 version.
RHEL-4 will reach end of life support at february end and use 0.9.7.
So supporting 0.9.8 as the last version make sense.
