That's easy enought to check. Run ldd on it an look for an OpenSSL
dependency. If SSL/TLS is eanbled and the dependency is missing, then
nginx was statically linked against OpenSSL. Below, nginx was built
with a dependency on the shared object.

$ ldd objs/nginx
linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007fff85f96000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f9f0345b000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0
(0x00007f9f0323f000)
libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypt.so.1 (0x00007f9f03007000)
libpcre.so.3 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpcre.so.3 (0x00007f9f02dca000)
libssl.so.1.0.0 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl.so.1.0.0
(0x00007f9f02b6a000)
libcrypto.so.1.0.0 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.0.0
(0x00007f9f02785000)
...

Sorry, I can't help. I believe that's a question for the Red Hat or
CentOS folks.
