	Setting LDFLAGS and CFLAGS did not work. (It was one of the things I
        tried before sending a message off to the mailing list)

	However I recompiled openssl with this:
	./Configure --prefix=/opt/openssl shared solaris-x86-cc
	and then attempted to configure inn.  It built with no problems.

	Thank you!
