This is a bug in the documentation which has since been addressed. In general you can't change the digest while retaining the same key because in some cases the original key is no longer available, though in some cases it did work and others it produced the wrong value. Now we're being stricter and preventing digest change. Steve. -- Dr Stephen N. Henson. OpenSSL project core developer.
