Hah, thanks for the hints!

Ultimately managed to find the cmake script(?) that searches for OpenSSL.
Replaced the pkg-config (.pc) name it searches for.

Not even sure if I need *all* of that... And I just turned things off

(Installed OpenSSL 3.3.1 from ports, that goes without saying.)

Interestingly enough, NLA works to this Windows 11 machine while using OpenSSL.
I bet if I rebuilt remmina linking to OpenSSL it would start working as well.

Not sure if this is a surprise or something worth noting in the port's description, though.
