This works fine. (still learning how to use these GNU auto-tools.
I am a C/UNIX developer by profession but don't use GNU tools
other than GCC occasionally. Thanks for the help and for your
patience!)

No changes other than your patch, copy/paste amendment to it, and
the above configure.in addition. I noticed something though and I'm
not certain of the desired behavior. If I use the --enable-ssl flag
openssl is found and it appears to be enabled (looking at autoconf.h)
Running ldd against the squid binary shows that it's linked against
 the openssl libs. The interesting thing is that I don't get any
of those MD5 conflict messages like I thought I would. Without the
--enable-ssl flag the Solaris MD5 header and library are used. If I
provide the --with-openssl=, I can use an alternate OpenSSL
installation ( SunStudio-built and aggressively optimized ) Is this
the desired (new) behavior? Running configure --help says that
--enable-ssl enables gatewaying support using OpenSSL so I'm assuming
 that it is. I'm just wanting to be sure that the OS's support
is functioning correctly. What's the best way to thoroughly test
this?

I was setting -L and -R flags in in the LDFLAGS env variable during
configure since with GCC I often have problems with the runtime
linker not being able to find libraries and trying to use 32 bit
libraries when doing a 64 bit build if I don't set them. I have
 removed all -L and -R paths (and I do not set LD_LIBRARY_PATH on
Solaris) yet I still end up with the duplicate linker arguments.
I'm off to see if I can figure out how this is happening.

Kind regards
