You are correct that OpenSSL cannot be built shared on AIX. Although there are several googles that say you can, I've had mixed results.

You can however do two possible things. I am now the binary maintainer for AIX. You can either get the binaries and use them, or if you still want to "take control" :-) you can look at the README in the binary area which contains the steps I used to build a static environment. If you want shared objects, I can email you the steps I use for our production boxes.
