Andy,

I resolved the problem by changing the endian flag for Intel Macs in the
configure file. See my note below. Perhaps this change to the configure file
can be included in future releases.

For the Intel Mac, change the Configure file. The value for darwin-i386-cc
should be L_ENDIAN, not B_ENDIAN. Otherwise you'll get a fips_canister
fingerprint mismatch.

"darwin-i386-cc","cc:-O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-common -DL_ENDIAN::
-D_REENTRANT:MACOSX::BN_LLONG RC4_CHAR RC4_CHUNK DES_UNROLL
BF_PTR:::::::::::
darwin-shared:-fPIC::.\$(SHLIB_MAJOR).\$(SHLIB_MINOR).dylib",
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 

Thanks,

As was mentioned on openssl-dev, it's known problem, but unfortunately
modifying FIPS 1.1.2 code is not an option. The problem was addressed
earlier in regular branches. Case is being dismissed. A.
