Ssl support is automatic is ssl is located in either /usr/local/ssl or 
/usr/contrib/ssl. If it is elsewhere: edit setup.py in the main python 
source folder, and look at the lines where ssl_incs and ssl_libs are 
set and add the place where you've installed ssl.

This should enable ssl support for both framework and static builds.
