if you don't want SSL support, you need to run ./configure --without-openssl
if you DO want SSL support, you'll need those libraries in a standard
place, or specify --with-openssl=/path/to/ssl

you should use make and the Makefile generated by ./configure to get all
the settings correct.... I believe you can use

make libpq.so

to just build the runtime rather than the full system.
