The main issue is that KDE both links to and dynamically loads the openssl libraries, supposedly to avoid problems with binary-incompatible openssl versions. This works reasonably well on Linux, where openssl usually resides somewhere below /usr, just as KDE usually does. On FreeBSD however, with KDE in /usr/local and openssl possibly in /usr *and* /usr/local and quite possibly with different versions in each of these places, things start to go wrong. I don't believe there is an actual problem with KDE and openssl 0.9.8 per se (it works fine on Linux), but things are very likely to not work if there are different versions of openssl in /usr and /usr/local at compile time or at runtime and having old openssl 0.9.7 libraries floating about and some kde library getting linked to both 0.9.7 and 0.9.8 may result in unpredictable behaviour as well. Like Nicolas wrote, I'm unable to run -CURRENT right now, so if anyone *has* a sufficiently clean 7-CURRENT, that is with no openssl ports installed and no old openssl-0.9.7 libraries left in the file system, I'd appreciate some confirmation that KDE and its openssl-sensitive parts (https in Konqueror, ssl/tls connections in kmail, kwallet, kopete) are working okay on that system.
