No. PHP looks for the headers and the libraries, so the sources are not
sufficient.
Thank you for the clarification.

These configuration options are used by different PHP extensions. PHP's
OpenSSL extension uses --with-openssl. --with-openssl-dir is used by
the FTP and the SNMP extension; if you don't need these, you can ignore
--with-openssl-dir altogether.
In any way, config.log is your friend. If the configuration fails,
there should be some useful info about what went wrong.
Now I understand. I was using `--with-openssl-dir=[DIR]` when I should actually have been using `--with-openssl=[DIR]`.
Thank you for your insight and advice, Christoph -- I am grateful for your time and assistance.
