[csw-maintainers] The dublin release: remaining tasks

During the Summercamp we agreed that what's left before the dublin
release, is a couple of core libraries that need repackaging according
to the (not so) new (anymore) policy.  The libraries are:

- openssl
- openldap
- libjpeg
- sasl

Let's use this thread to coordinate and track progress.  The libraries
above are either unmaintained, or their maintainers don't have the
time to rework the build recipes.

I looked at openssl.  The first problem is that it doesn't build.  Not
sure whether it's something about my build evironment, or a problem
with the build recipe itself.

"gmake: *** No rule to make target `libssl.a', needed by
`libssl.so.0.9.8'.  Stop."

Could anyone else try to build openssl and see if they get the same error?

I know that Dago has made some progress on openldap and libjpeg.
What's left is sasl.  Could someone volunteer and start working on
sasl?  Even partial progress: "try to build, see what fails, and
report back", would be helpful.
