Hearing nothing, I have fixed the issue and back-patched it.
While looking at it, I have noticed that e2838c58 has never actually
worked with OpenSSL 0.9.6 because we lack an equivalent for
EVP_MD_CTX_destroy() and EVP_MD_CTX_create(). This issue would be
easy enough to fix as the size of EVP_MD_CTX is known in those
versions of OpenSSL, but as we have heard zero complaints on this
matter I have left that out in the 9.5 and 9.6 branches. Back in
2016, even 0.9.8 was barely used, so I can't even imagine somebody
using 0.9.6 with the most recent PG releases.
