Note to self: "git commit -a --amend" can be dangerous. Sorry for the mess.

However, this particular change is related to a discussion I had on the
mailing list about this hashlib module which was causing build issues
on some machines in host Python. This module needs OpenSSL on the host,
which we don't have installed on some autobuilders. So how come we
hadn't seen these failures before ?
