Copying libeay32.a to libssl.a did the trick

I certainly didn't expect Strawberry to go with *that* naming convention for their openssl libraries. I expected they would stick with the more general '-lssl -lcrypto' nomenclature (which is what mingw builds for native win32 in the msys shell) .... but I was wrong. I guess they have good reason(s) for doing that.

Cheers,
Rob
