Yes, it changes the global state of libcrypto.
I consider the risk to other application slim to non-existing. Two cases are
problematic:
1) an application relies on the fact that EVP_get_digestbyname("sha3_256")
fails.
2) an application also uses EVP_add_digest_alias() but registers a different
digest algorithm.
Both cases seem highly unlikely to me.
