In general, instead of explicitly passing -lcrypto it is better to use
pkg-config to get the flags:
$(CC) `pkg-config --cflags libcrypto --libs libcrypto` -o prog prog.c

Did you also add a dependency on openssl in the package.mk file? Do you pass
the correct CC in the package.mk file? Is the header properly installed in
output/staging/usr/include/openssl?
