Then that is what it must be called: "sha2-512/256". I think that's a legal
string in HTTP headers.
Supposedly this is faster on 64-bit applications. I wonder if that is true in
practice. So far, I have seen no implementations of this hash function.
I've done a complete bit-level implementation. It's a straight-forward
modification to RFC 6234.
