Problems installing ossl on XP with MinGW/Cygwin

I am attempting to install ossl on Windows XP with MinGW/Cygwin
I already have openssl installed. I get the following error:

$ ruby extconf.rb --with-openssl-dir=/cygdrive/c/apps/openssl
checking for strptime()… no
checking for openssl/ssl.h… no

Does anyone know where strptime should be defined?

Any tips on installing ossl on windows are appreciated.

Enven if this function does not exist, it may be not a problem.

If you are using Cygwin, you need openssl and openssl-devel
package for headers and libraries.
