Did you try the newest CVS snapshot of the Distutils?
The snapshot has several bugs fixed.

Just tried it. Doesn't make a change.

You do not need libcrypt or libssl when building the
shared library. You only need header files.
Here is the I get when running build_ext:
>./setup.py build_ext
gcc -c -I/usr/include/openssl -I/usr/include/python1.5 -g -O2 -fPIC ssl.c -o build/temp.linux2-i686/ssl.o
gcc -shared -lc build/temp.linux2-i686/ssl.o -o build/lib.linux2-i686/ssl.so

If your SSL header files are somewhere else than in /usr/include/openssl, for example in /usr/local/include/openssl, you have to run
./setup.py build_ext -I/usr/local/include/openssl

If you still have problems running the build_ext command, please provide the output of the command.

I tried the following:

./setup.py build_ext -I /usr/local/ssl/include/openssl/ running build_ext building 'ssl' extension gcc -c -I/usr/local/ssl/include/openssl -I/usr/local/ssl/include/openssl/ -I/usr/local/include/python1.5 -g -O2 -fpic ssl.c -o build/temp.linux2-i686/ssl.o gcc -shared build/temp.linux2-i686/ssl.o -o build/lib.linux2-i686/ssl.so

I get an ssl.so build, but when i try to use it i get:

>>> import ssl
Traceback (innermost last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: ./ssl.so: undefined symbol: SSL_set_fd

ldd ssl.so gives:
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x4000b000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)

Shouldn't that include the shared libs ?
