The configure script generates config.log, which may show where
the problem is.  I have a log from ELinks 0.11.4 that says:

configure:18215: checking for OpenSSL
configure:18263: gcc -o conftest -O0 -ggdb -Wall -Wall -I/home/Kalle/prefix/include -I/usr/include/smjs -I/usr/include -I/usr/include/lua50 -L/home/Kalle/prefix/i686-pc-linux-gnu/lib -rdynamic conftest.c -lssl -lcrypto -L/usr/lib -llua50 -llualib50 -lm -L/usr/lib -lsmjs -ldl  -lgpm -lz -lbz2 -lidn -lexpat >&5
configure:18269: $? = 0
configure:18273: test -z 
			 || test ! -s conftest.err
configure:18276: $? = 0
configure:18279: test -s conftest
configure:18282: $? = 0
configure:18371: result: yes
configure:18806: checking for GNU TLS (1.2 or later)
configure:18808: result: not used

The script tries to compile and link a test program with various
-I and -L options.  Each time compilation fails, the script
outputs the test program to config.log, preceded by "configure:
failed program was:" and the error messages from the compiler and
linker.  Those should show you what went wrong.

I don't know which OpenSSL version ELinks now requires.
The OpenSSL check in elinks-0.11.5/configure.in was last changed
on 2005-06-10.
