with php 4.1.1, i installed with the following options ->

mysql - postgres - xml - domxml - ftp - curl - openssl - gettext - sockets

installed great.  then i try to use curl over https and it tells me:

SSL:  Couldn't create a context!

so i look in the bug database and find a few things telling me that in older versions, configuring php without openssl would fix things up for me.  so i tried that, with all the same options as above but without openssl, but php will not install without the openssl option.  here's the error plus the bunch of lines before it:
