New submission from Björn Pollex :
When building Python 3.7.2 using pyenv on MacOS, it will use `--with-openssl`
to configure OpenSSL. With that option, the compiler options for OpenSSL will
be passed via `OPENSSL_*` variables, rather than normal compiler flags (e.g.
`OPENSSL_LDFLAGS` vs. `LDFLAGS`). When compiling an extension, these flags will
not be propagated by `distutils`, and so an extension that depends on OpenSSL
fails to compile.
I'm not sure what the expected behavior here is. Should the package handle this
by querying `sysconfig` directly in `setup.py`? Or should this be handled
automatically by `distutils`?
Specifically, I ran into this issue when trying to install `mysqlclient-python`
(https://github.com/PyMySQL/mysqlclient-python).
