Compiling libcrypto.a with flashcc

Question

OSX 10.8.4
Crossbridge 1.0.1
Steps to reproduce:
wget https://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.0.1e.tar.gz
tar xvfz openssl-1.0.1e.tar.gz
cd openssl-1.0.1e
Now, edit the Makefile.shared, line 9.
CC=~/crossbridge/sdk/usr/bin/gcc
Save & Close. Edit Makefile.org, line 60
CC=~/crossbridge/sdk/usr/bin/gcc
line 67 & 68
AR=~/crossbridge/sdk/usr/bin/ar $(ARFLAGS) r
RANLIB=~/crossbridge/sdk/usr/bin/ranlib
Save & Close. Run ./config
You'll see:
WARNING! If you wish to build 64-bit library, then you have to
         invoke './Configure darwin64-x86_64-cc' *manually*.
         You have about 5 seconds to press Ctrl-C to abort.
Ignore that.. it's OK. Now, open up Makefile. Edit line 62
CC=~/crossbridge/sdk/usr/bin/gcc
line 63, remove "-arch i386" (flashcc doesn't have that option)
line 70
RANLIB=~/crossbridge/sdk/usr/bin/ranlib
Now, I only need libcrypto.a, so:
cd crypto/
make
Many of the objects are created, but it fails on
~/crossbridge/sdk/usr/bin/gcc -I. -I.. -I../include  -DOPENSSL_THREADS -D_REENTRANT -DDSO_DLFCN -DHAVE_DLFCN_H -Wa,--noexecstack -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -DL_ENDIAN -DOPENSSL_BN_ASM_PART_WORDS -DOPENSSL_IA32_SSE2 -DOPENSSL_BN_ASM_MONT -DOPENSSL_BN_ASM_GF2m -DSHA1_ASM -DSHA256_ASM -DSHA512_ASM -DMD5_ASM -DRMD160_ASM -DAES_ASM -DVPAES_ASM -DWHIRLPOOL_ASM -DGHASH_ASM -c  -o x86cpuid.o x86cpuid.s`

Please you beautiful wizards.. what am I doing wrong?

Hi siznakeo,
Is this thread still alive? This is the first time I've ever posted here asking for help, but you really seems like you got somewhere with building libcrypto using crossbridge.
I am attempting to build libopenssl, and felt like I was bashing my head against a brick wall until i found your post. However, I think im using a newer version of crossbridge to you (I am using Crossbridge_1.1.0.devbuild.fdb5425), which does not appear to contain gcc; I therefore downloaded your complete ssl1.0.1e zip and replaced line 62 in the Makefile from:
/cross/bin/gcc to /crossbridge/sdk/usr/bin/clang
Similarly, I use:
/crossbridge/sdk/usr/bin/ar and /crossbridge/sdk/usr/bin/ranlib.
Many files compile after i issue make, but then the build fails with:
eng_cryptodev.c:57:10: fatal error: 'crypto/cryptodev.h' file not found
After looking into this a bit I discovered that HAVE_CRYPTODEV has to be defined for this code to compile, and it's not defined in Makefile (the Makefile is untouched in this regard as i was saying). I can only assume this problem is a by-product of my using crossbridge clang instead of gcc..?
I just know it will be one thing someone will say that'll probably save me weeks of frustration.. can anyone help?
Thanks a lot in advance:)
