Stability of interfaces. I've seen openssl change incompatibly before  
where fetchmail depended on it, for extracting key finger prints, and some  
systems may have gnutls instead.

My options are:
- depend on coreutils for FreeBSD (so we have md5sum)
- patch scripts for md5 (for FreeBSD, possible in the port)
- do nothing and let people deal with it (such as: install coreutils)

Best regards,
