Most definitely not!  I don't have statistics on how many downloads
htdig-3.1.6.tar.gz has gotten, but it's very likely one or two orders
of magnitude higher.  We're not going to force all those users into
potentially having to fight to build htdig on their systems all for a
patch that a small minority of users would actually want.  3.1.7 will be
for bug fixes, as well as small, well tested, and *portable* changes only.
That was the reason for excluding the ssl patch from 3.1.6, and that
reason hasn't gone away - if anything it's become more imperative.

If you want SSL, deal with the patch or deal with a 3.2 beta.
