Here's a patch.  The packing list already showed the SSL related header
files.  The only change was the addition of the libwwwssl libraries.

I see that at least one other person has modified the Makefile by
hand to include --with-ssl.  It is unclear why he didn't take the
next step and modify the Makefile too.

The PR implies there is another port, net/xmlrpc-c, which could potentially
benefit from adding --with-ssl to www/libwww.
