[erlang-questions] Is it possible to compile crypto app with _static_ libcrypto

[Sverker Eriksson]

Option --disable-dynamic-ssl-lib will link crypto with a static 
libcrypto.a instead of a dynamic libcrypto.so. But crypto itself 
(crypto.so) is still a dynamic library loaded by the emulator.

I think the problem is with libcrypto.a. It was not built to be part of 
a dynamic library. I would recommend downloading openssl and rebuild it 
yourself.
