PRNG not available when multiple providers are configured?

[Dr Paul Dale]

> Ah ha! This explanation makes sense to me and indeed pointed me at the real problem. I had recompiled OpenSSL but I forgot to update the hmac in fips.cnf via fipsinstall. So yes, the fips provider was failing to activate because of that. As soon I fixed the hmac RAND_status() started working for me. So THANKS for that! :-)

Not producing any diagnostic output for a failed checksum seems like a bug.
