FIPS mode must be explicitly entered into. I don't know if any of
the command line tools will make the FIPS entry call.

I have a question about the FIPS 140-2 status of the openssl
command line tool.
If I successfully compile openssl-fips-1.1.1 to obtain an openssl
command line tool linked against
it (fipscanister.o), and I use that openssl commandline tool to
encrypt a file with a FIPS
approved cipher (for example, AES), would that use be considered
FIPS 140-2 compliant?
