OpenSSL has moved to Apache 2 license, which is clearly compatible with LGPL v3 (but not v2.1, which is ffmpeg's default). Note that FFmpeg devs believe that the previous license is also compatible with LGPL (any version), but not GPL.
See https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/blob/37702e20663dc8111534229af551763c2a954e73/LICENSE.md#incompatible-libraries for more details.
Note that the upstream also believes that Fraunhofer FDK AAC is also compatible with LGPL, but IANAL and fdk-aac uses its own custom license.
