The OpenSSL vs GPL license compatibility is a subject of much debate amongst lawyers, so the answer you get depends on who you ask. IANAL, but my personal reading is that the OpenSSL license is *not* compatible with the (L)GPL. Thus as a libvirt copyright holder my position is that libvirt must only be used with a libcurl that links to either NSS or GNUTLS, and *not* OpenSSL.
