Interesting, there are many other copies of libmd around (other BSDs, embedded in various software) that include MD5Pad, but checking Debian Code Search I see (unsurprisingly) no users. I am a little torn as our shlib guidelines desire avoiding version bumps, but it would also be silly to restore MD5Pad just to satisfy that.

Yeah; I did a couple other things later in the stack to try and help justify it, as well. I think the *Transform symbols are in the same boat and they keep causing problems with various compiler/linker/flag combos because the implementation symbols should be exported as well.
