The same problem appears.

[Comment 6 Jyrki Launonen 2010-11-23 07:49:56 UTC]

The ssmtp-2.62-darwin-crypto.patch seems to contain invalid whitespace at relevant patch-lines: It is formatted as:
-<SPACE><TAB>LIBS="$LIBS -lssl"
+<SPACE><TAB>LIBS="$LIBS -lssl -lcrypto"
whereas it should be
-<TAB>LIBS="$LIBS -lssl"
+<TAB>LIBS="$LIBS -lssl -lcrypto"

With this fixed, patch's correctly, and builds.

Sigh, GNU patch versions handle whitespace differently :/

Thanks for reporting, now fixed in tree.
