Ok, I pushed this change to the kdelibs 4.10 branch.

Let me know if something doesn't build anymore.

Especially for the Windows team: I removed our version of FindOpenSSL.cmake, 
so we use the one coming with cmake now. I don't remember exactly who it was, 
but somebody reported that the verison coming with cmake would actually work 
better under Windows than our version. Now, there is a small potential 
incompatibility in this file: the variable ${OPENSSL_EAY_LIBRARIES} does not 
exist anymore, but the generic ${OPENSSL_LIBRARIES} variable should contain 
everything that's needed, so if there are no special tests for this variable 
it should still work.
