Erm, sorry..what do you mean? ;-) If you mean why do you need to run "config;
make" etc, when openssl is in the distribution, then the answer is you don't.
There's no reason to re-build it unless a) there's a feature you need that's not
in the distribution or b) you need to debug a problem, etc, etc.
