I don't know enough about TPM to say for sure. If you have to make *any*
changes to the FIPS module code (which is likely) then you would need a
new validation (e.g. a "private label" one). That gets you into a new
level of hurt as the #1747 module (the OpenSSL FIPS Object Module v2.0)
is no longer usable as-is for copycat validations.
