Yes, this is on my TODO list.  There's other code that also uses
(and/or would benefit from) roken.

I'm not sure about this.  I think the best way is:

- try to use openssl
- if that's not available, build libdes + md[45],sha,rc4.  (It would
  be nice if there was a minimal library from openssl)

openssl is missing md4.  I'm almost done add md4 to it.  Then I think
we should just be able to use that.
