Tried it with slashes in both directions, it even hangs if I delete  
the -I & -L args and just have "-openssl-linked"...   I've tried this  
on 3 Windows XP VMs result are the same on each.   Longest I left it  
running was about 6 hours.

It is definitely something to do with "-openssl-linked" specifically  
causing configure.exe to hang.

I also tried " -openssl-linked OPENSSL_LIBS='-lssleay32 -llibeay32' "  
but configure.exe spits out the help page telling me that is not a  
correct syntax.
