[rtg] Install on OS X

[Brian T. O'Neill]

Check to see if it's not able to find the header files for openssl. If
the libcrypto is there, it could very well be failing not because it
can't find libcrypto, but because the program that compiles to test for
libcrypto is failing for something like missing header files.
