Depending on what is found, it will define its MD5 functions to match
the internal or an external one. I think the old version I'm using even
used the one from libmd when found, but well, it takes its internal one
when there is no libmd or similar. And the internal one looks as good as
the one from libmd, from a very short check.
Anyway, I'd say lets drop the dependency. Best way to handle it.
