It is I who posted that question. :P

I haven't made any comments yet because this issue is still a work in progress. I re-compiled OpenSSL taking into consideration that libdl.a probably wasn't linked properly to libcrypto.a, and have also tried re-compiling Git afterward, but with the same errors. I have also created a .conf file for `ld.so`, and ran `sudo ldconfig` which solved some other issues I was having. Running `ldd msgfmt` revealed that run-time libraries were not being found, and after running `sudo ldconfig`, `ldd msgfmt` then showed the libgettext .so was linked. So, I solved some of my issues, and if there was an issue with statically linked libraries not being found, as in this case, then, I believe re-compiling OpenSSL with the proper LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS would have solved the issue, but they have not.

I'm currently attempting to install GCC 4.7.2, which is having some other issues with texinfo 5.1. I can't find the link, but I someone said it could be the compiler version... since everything else that seems like might be the issue isn't fixing it, I'm going to try re-compiling OpenSSL with GCC 4.7.2 and see how that goes.
