EVP_MD_CTX can fail for other reasons than memory allocation failure
such as algorithm unavailability from a provider. So you would need to
check anyway.

based structure like EVP_MD_CTX?
If I don't want to have one be malloc'd (or OPENSSL_zalloc'd as the case may
be), I can't have one be a stack variable or static, can I?
I ask because I'm trying to replace some e
