I agree with Jeff; MD5-MAC & MD4 might be worthwhile to keep for
another rev or two.

Hi Wei,

The only suspect I see that raises a flag is:
MD5-MAC

In case someone is using Crypto++ to interface with a legacy system.

It might be nice to keep MD4 in (even though it is not
Cryptographically secure) for legacy stuff also.
