only does the mount, it then passes the connection to the kernel level
smbfs. smbfs doesn't even know how to spell SSL much less talk it.

Maybe this should to one or more of
a) not link with -lssl and quitely ignore it
b) give a warning at compile time that smbfs/smbmount won't do SSL
c) link with ssl (and add the path to the library I assume is missing) and
see what happens
smbclient should work.
