Sigh,
I will try to build without OpenSSL…
Of course there is another option, prebuilt binaries:

My database is seventeen years old, I don’t even remember
which Postgresql I started out with...

Hmm, I'm not really sure why it's failing at that step --- it gets past
that for me. Possibly looking into config.log to see if there's a more
detailed error report would be illuminating. However, trying to build
against Apple's openssl libraries is a lost cause anyway, because they
removed the header files in Sierra. So it will fail when it gets to
header file checks; where it stops for me is
checking for openssl/ssl.h... no
configure: error: header file <openssl/ssl.h> is required for OpenSSL
AFAIK the only way forward is to install a complete OpenSSL installation
from source, or using MacPorts or brew or other tool-of-choice.
Apple would really like people to start using their SSL infrastructure.
That handwriting has been on the wall for years, but nobody's gotten
around to writing the necessary interface logic for Postgres.
