The pattern, I expect, is that if it's reasonable to consider
running Emacs on a GNU/Linux-based platform, these days openssl
is most likely a standard part of that platform.
The actual criterion is
The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
implementation is available to the public in source code form.
I don't think OpenSSL is included in the normal form of
packaging Linux, and I don't think it satisfies (b) either.
