With versions of perl before the 5.10.0, one has to install one or
the other module anyway, as it does not come with the perl package.
I do not doubt that Digest::SHA installs and works just fine with 5.8.x,
as this is not a new module. What I don't know is whether it is more
difficult to install Digest::SHA compared to Digest::SHA1 on systems
that you mention. On FreeBSD it is very straightforward. The Solaris
CSW packages also have both modules available.
