--------------------------------------------+------------------------------
 Trying to cross build static Tor on Linux with mingw (to use on
 Windows-x86). It seems configure cannot find OpenSSL if its version is not
 1.0.2. Tried openssl-1.1.0 and openssl-1.1.1, and also different Tor
 versions from 0.3.5.XX to 0.4.0.5 and 0.4.1.5. Building against
 openssl-1.0.2 works.
