Hmmm.  I'm running SL 5.3 and passed the test on the first try 
without updating libgcrypt.

rpm -q libgcrypt
libgcrypt-1.2.4-1.el5.x86_64
libgcrypt-1.2.4-1.el5.i386

Did I miss an update that broke openssl?  Or did I miss the openssl 
update?

rpm -q openssl
openssl-0.9.8e-12.el5_4.6.x86_64
openssl-0.9.8e-12.el5_4.6.i686
