Figured it out.  Configure requires that '--config' be joined to its
value with an equal sign.  In other words, this slight variation
works:

./Configure --config=../no_dso.conf my-linux-x86_64  -m32 --prefix=$install_path/openssl_32 -DPURIFY -DOPENSSL_NO_COMP no-asm no-shared no-dso no-sse2 no-idea no-mdc2 no-rc5 no-ssl3 no-zlib no-comp no-afalgeng no-pinshared
