We can't wait for *that* (:-), so I charged ahead and installed the
attached patches into the emacs-28 branch. This fixed the md5_stream
issue for me.
The key issue here is whether Emacs wants to use cryptography algorithms
supported by the Linux kernel, if available. I expect that Emacs doesn't
want to bother, because its use of md5_stream is not that performance-
or security-relevant and because if we wanted Emacs to use the kernel
stuff that'd drag in a lot more Gnulib modules which would be more
trouble than it's worth. Comments welcome of course, since this is a
judgment call.
I hadn't run into this earlier because I was doing a default
configure+build, which on my platform didn't use native compilation.
