Whether the local implementation of MD4/MD5 will be used is decided solely
at the compile time.  libcurl never fallbacks to the local implementation
of MD4/MD5 if the crypto backend returns an error.  The actual problem is
that the NTLM implementation in libcurl ignores failures of the MD4/MD5/DES 
algorithms all over the code.  This needs to be fixed I guess.
