when kerberos use is active openssl depends directly on mit-krb5 instead of virtual/krb5, this leads to conflicts with heimdal which seems to be needed for Active Directory issues. Reproducible: Always
Did you read the ChangeLog? 16 Nov 2007; Doug Klima <cardoe@gentoo.org> openssl-0.9.8g.ebuild: change depend to mit-krb5 since openssl's Configure script specifically states they don't support building against heimdal and it will break. Which results in a die during the ebuild
