--with-vio and --with-openssl are for configuring from source. If you
installed a -max server from a binary version, those options don't apply.
To see whether your server is SSL capable, use this query:
mysql> SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'have_openssl';
+---------------+-------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+---------------+-------+
| have_openssl | YES |
+---------------+-------+
If it is, you'll see YES. If not, you'll see NO or no output at all.
