I always look at Gentoo first, and it is validated for
openssl+libressl without any additional patches: (link at gpo, which
mirrors them from packages.gentoo.org)
https://data.gpo.zugaina.org/gentoo/net-libs/gloox/gloox-1.0.17.ebuild

2016-09-24 17:06 <ng0> I think net-libs/gloox/gloox-* is wrong in using openssl/libressl. for version 0.17 the --with-ssl option is ignored. I packaged it for Guix and assumed openssl or libressl would work, but it is not even linked in the end. someone should fix that for Gentoo.
2016-09-24 17:09 <kensington> ng0: links ok here
2016-09-24 17:09 <kensington> ET_DYN libresolv.so.2,libssl.so.1.0.0,libcrypto.so.1.0.0,libz.so.1,libstdc++.so.6,libm.so.6,libc.so.6,libgcc_s.so.1 /usr/lib64/libgloox.so

I'll see what I need to adjust, will send a new patch.
