[Dovecot] Specifying with openssl to use

[Chase]

I'm trying to setup dovecot on Solaris 10. I can get it all working 
except TLS/SSL. I traced my problem down to the version of openssl that 
Solaris 10 ships with. The fix is supposed to be to use a newer version 
of openssl. Without removing the built-in version of openssl I've 
installed openssl-0.9.8b to /usr/local.

When I "./configure" dovecot it seems to always pick up the broken 
version of openssl in /usr/sfw.  How do I make dovecot use an alternate 
copy of openssl? How is it even finding the one in /usr/sfw?

Thanks,

I tried setting CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS already.
