If you need to configure openssl configure options which require 
"make depend", you can run "make depend" yourself before making 
nginx (and thus OpenSSL).

Alternatively, you can make OpenSSL yourself instead of asking 
nginx to do it for you.  Note that using --with-openssl option of 
nginx configure is not something required for static building with 
OpenSSL.  Rather, it's a convenient shortcut to make things easier 
in common cases.
