If you try to build exim with this defconfig
BR2_PACKAGE_OPENSSL=y
BR2_PACKAGE_EXIM=y
without the buildroot package host-openssl and without a libssl-dev
package installed on your host machine the exim build will fail:
/usr/bin/gcc -DMACRO_PREDEF macro_predef.c
In file included from hash.h:14,
from exim.h:485,
from macro_predef.c:11:
sha_ver.h:37:12: fatal error: openssl/ssl.h: No such file or directory
because macro_predef also has the an optional dependency on openssl:

Sorry, but this is beyond the scope of the time I am willing to invest in
buildroot.
