Compiling beta2 with openssl on XP Pro

I couldn't get beta1 with openssl (snapshot of 27August) past configure on mingw so I thought I'd just skip to beta2 and re-try. 

The snag I'm hitting is that the configure script doesn't seem to find the -lcrypto library. I'm specifying that library as /usr/local/ssl/lib from the --with-libs switch:

/configure --with-openssl --with-includes=/usr/local/include:/usr/ssl/include --with-libs=/usr/local/lib:/usr/ssl/lib

I'm assuming that to include multiple directories you add the colon (:) in between, but perhaps this is wrong (??)

In any case, when the configure script tries to compile conftest.c, it can't find -lcrypto:

configure:7321: gcc -o conftest.exe -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing  -I./src/include/port/win32 -DEXEC_BACKEND  -I/usr/local/include   -L/usr/local/lib conftest.c -lcrypto  -lz -lwsock32 -lm  >&5
c:\mingw\bin\..\lib\gcc-lib\mingw32\3.2.3\..\..\..\..\mingw32\bin\ld.exe: cannot find -lcrypto

BUT, note that only the /usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib are added to the compile command. The script seems to be missing my additional directories of /usr/local/ssl/lib and /usr/local/ssl/include.

Can someone steer me in the right direction? How do I specify multiple search directories with the configure switches?

Thanks.

p.s. If I cut out the conftest.c code and try to compile with the above command but add the missing -L and -I switches, it finds -lcrypto but gives the error:

gcc -o conftest.exe -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing  -I./src/include/port/win32 -DEXEC_BACKEND 
 -I/usr/local/include  -I/usr/local/ssl/include -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/ssl/lib  con
ftest.c -lcrypto  -lz -lwsock32 -lm
