Thanks, Tom. I really appreciate you taking the time to help me out!
I think I'm good now. I ran `readelf -d libpq.so | grep runpath` and I see that the path I specified in --with-libraries is present (albeit after my system path). It also appears the version I expected of libssl is being used (libssl.so.1.1).
At this point I think it's fairly straightforward to set the rpath to lock down the runtime linking as you mentioned. Thanks again!

No; --with-libraries will control what's linked against. The problem
you face is that the dynamic linker has its own idea of how to resolve
the library references at runtime. (ldd just reports on what the
dynamic linker would do; there's no trace in the executable file of
exactly which copy of a shlib was linked against.)
