That's not the way to do it under Linux. The normal way to use shared libs is
to directly link them in.

If, for some reasons, they need to be dlopen'ed, then the "versioned libraries"
libraries need to be dlopen'ed, not the unversioned libraries.

I.e. dlopening libopenssl.so is wrong.
It should be libopenssl.so.<something> => This package needs to be patched.

BTW: I just noticed, in mongoose, the same consideration applies to
libcrypto.so.*.
