There is code to handle MD5 checksums included within the Net-SNMP
distribution.  All other security-related processing (SHA checksums
and assorted encryption) relies on OpenSSL.

But the "encryption" of usernames can't rely on that library, since
it needs to be available even when OpenSSL isn't installed.
