"Clean-up" stands for the fact that it's using common message digest
template ../md32_common.h and sha[1_]dgst.c are reduced down to
'#define SHA_[01]' and then '#include "sha_locl.h"'. It stands "(LP64)"
there because it's 64 bit platforms which benefit most from the tune-up.
The updated code exhibits 40% performance improvement on IRIX64
(sounds too good, huh? I probably should double check if it's not
some cache trashing that was holding it back before), 28% - on
Alpha Linux and 12% - Solaris 7/64.
so that warnings about unused variables (for certain
-D... constellations) are avoided; this corresponds to the earlier
change for SHA1.

1. The already released version was 0.9.1c and not 0.9.1b
2. The next release should be 0.9.2 and not 0.9.1d, because
first the changes are already too large, second we should avoid any more
0.9.1x confusions and third, the Apache version semantics of
VERSION.REVISION.PATCHLEVEL for the version string is reasonable (and here
.2 is already just a patchlevel and not major change).
