What is going on is that these other packages depend on libcrypto.so.1. 
The version of openssh you are building creates libcrypto.so.2.  You
have a few choices...

You can install RedHat's openssl095a package.  Notice that the name is
different.  This package will not conflict with the openssl package, and
it provides libcrypto.so.1.

You can create your new package with a different name.  Openssl096, or
similar.  This leaves your old openssl library in place when you
upgrade.

You can install two packages of the same name.  This can sometime lead
to very strange upgrade problems, so be careful.  Instead of using rpm
-U to install it, just use rpm -i.
