Using 2.6.11-rc3 with Openswan, no IPSEC SA can be established. Kernel
logs "kernel: ESP: md5 digestsize 16 != 0" and netlink returns an error.
The changes to XFRM in 2.6.11-rc3 have an error in xfrm_algo.c such that
xfrm_aalg_get_byname() always returns digest_null (which would indeed
have a zero length digest...)
The problem is here:

where the sense of (!strcmp()) is reversed. It's easier to read by
explicitly comparing to zero, IMHO, as I did in this patch.
