I have the -3 release installed here and it doesn't seem to work:

# wget
wget: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

(same with other programs like git)

# rpm -q openssl
openssl-0.9.8j-3.fc11.x86_64

# rpm -q --scripts openssl
postinstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
if [ "$(readlink /lib64/libcrypto.so.7)" != libcrypto.so.0.9.8j ] ; then
    ln -sf libcrypto.so.0.9.8j /lib64/libcrypto.so.7 || :
fi
if [ "$(readlink /lib64/libssl.so.7)" != libssl.so.0.9.8j ] ; then
    ln -sf libssl.so.0.9.8j /lib64/libssl.so.7 || :
fi
/sbin/ldconfig -X
postuninstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
/sbin/ldconfig -X
postinstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
/sbin/ldconfig -X
postuninstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
/sbin/ldconfig -X

# ll /lib64/libcrypto.so.*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1570656 2009-01-16 16:19 /lib64/libcrypto.so.0.9.8j
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      19 2009-01-17 12:26 /lib64/libcrypto.so.8 -> libcrypto.so.0.9.8j

Anything else I need to try?

Rich.
