IIRC, openssl only started requiring pthreads as of the 1.1.0 release;
could you confirm what version of openssl you are using?

I also thought that it was more portable to use the -pthread argument
(which does not necessarily translate to a new library dependency,
depending on the platform) than explictly linking a pthread implementation.

Also, does your openssl packaging provide a pkgconfig file or similar?
That seems like it would be a more portable way of picking up new
depnedencies than hardcoding it in configure.in.
