  *   Did you mean if an application uses the low level crypto algorithm functions (e.g. SHA256_Init/ SHA256_Update/ SHA256_Final) then they won't work under FIPS mode (and hence may cause unpredictable issues)?

Yes.

It’s not unpredictable issues, but rather that your application cannot claim to be FIPS validated.
