Idle hands... cleanup needs to be linked against libssl?

David and I were wondering why the cleanup deamon is being linked
against libssl.

I had a naive look:

postamt:/usr/src/postfix-2.6-20080411/src/cleanup# fgrep -i ssl *
Binary file cleanup matches
Makefile:SYSLIBS = -lpcre -lssl -lcrypto -lcdb -ldb -lnsl -lresolv
Makefile:EXPORT = AUXLIBS='-lpcre -lssl -lcrypto -lcdb' CCARGS='-DHAS_CDB -DUSE_TLS -DHAS_PCRE -DUSE_SASL_AUTH -DDEF_SERVER_SASL_TYPE=\"dovecot\" -DSNAPSHOT' OPT='-O' DEBUG='-g'

So, I don't think linking in libssl would be necessary. But what do I
know, so I think I'd rather ask.
