Comments 

Should not install the damn rpm file, 'cause the include files are not within the package so none of the packages that depends on it can build from source. Openssh is an example.

ver OpenSSL (openssl-0.9.6) 

./config --prefix=/opt
make
make test
make report
pkg=ssl
make -n install | tee /export/pub/installs/logs/$pkg.log.0
make install | tee /export/pub/installs/logs/$pkg.log.1
shared libs 
can simply use
./config --prefix=/opt shared
to produce the shared libs but the installation is not very good:
creating 3 different files instead of 1 file & 2 links.
make linux-shared
cd /opt/lib
rm libcrypto.so* libssl.so*
cdd /export/expand/ssh/openssl-0.9.6
cp -d libcrypto.so* libssl.so* ~+1
