Try setting environment variables CFLAGS="-L /path/to/ssl/libs" and 
LD_FLAGS="-L /path/to/ssl/libs -R /path/to/ssl/libs".

Eg. (all in single line)

env CFLAGS="-L /usr/local/ssl/lib" LD_FLAGS="-L /usr/local/ssl/lib -R 
/usr/local/ssl/lib" ./configure (other configure parameters)

You can find the path to openssl libs by searching for libssl.so or 
libcrypto.so (find /usr -name libssl.so)
