I only have a small editorial nit.  I was about to jump all over this
about the ssl support.  I was *assuming* that you were linking with 
openSSL, which causes MANY GPL related problems.  (I wanted to incorporate
some of the code from ssldump to decode data inside of SSL streams, if the
private keys of the certificates used were available, but couldn't get
around the licensing issues)

Anyway, please stop using the word SSL, and change it to HAVE_MD5, since
all you're doing is using MD5.

Also, there are several free places to find MD5 and HMAC_MD5 source code.
You might, instead of relying on a library, simply use one and remove the
ifdef completely.

Just my $.02 worth,
