+Allow to explicitly disable openssl and mysql
+
+AC_ARG_WITH() is being incorrectly used: the third argument indicates
+the action that needs to be taken when a value was passed, when not
+the option is enabled. Therefore, the result of the existing code was
+that when you passed --without-mysql or --without-openssl, the
+$withval variable would get the value 'yes', which is obviously wrong.
+
+Instead, we simply empty this third argument, because $withval is
+already properly filled with 'yes' or 'no' by the AC_ARG_WITH()
+function.
