Comment (by EionRobb):

 looks like libaxolotl-c has a ssl layer in it (struct
 axolotl_crypto_provider) to be able to specify ssl implementations, so
 that it doesn't have to rely on one crypto lib (libpurple has a similar
 thing with ssl backends)

 Unfortunately, it requires implementations of hmac-sha256, sha512 and aes,
 of which libpurple only has ciphers for hmac-sha256

 still, more good news about not needing openssl
