I described the installation of Thrift (which also uses OpenSSL) 
on Windows here: 
https://github.com/klickverbot/thrift/wiki/Building-Thrift-D-on-Windows

In the build system, I just add the generated import libraries to 
the command lines afterwards (like a source file, without any 
special switch).

Hope this helps,
David
