Me too; I don't see sha or md5 as crypto. I'm only against adding new
*crypto* capability.
I'm also for isolating existing crypto capability so it's easy to
remove for anyone who has a need for a crypto-free distribution. I
think we're already doing that, given that even on Windows, the SSL
module is a separate DLL.
