Problem with compilation of NASL

After recompiling OpenSSL with the shared libraries, it appears to work
now.  I had to do a make install in OpenSSL TWICE because after
installing libnasl, it somehow reverted me to the old libraries again.
Anyway, that seems to have done it.  One other note is that I inserted
-mcpu=athlon into the .tmpl files to make a cpu-specific version of
nessus, as that seems to have been left out.

Do you also have /usr/lib/libcrypto.so*? You'll need those since you're
building nessus with shared library support (eg, "-ldl" above).  If you
don't, rebuild OpenSSL and pass config the "shared" argument.
