But clownfish was working fine up through Aug 2, and the only change in
pgcrypto since then could hardly have introduced this failure:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-committers/2007-08/msg00306.php

So I think there's more to it than Marko's explanation. Maybe clownfish
now has a different OpenSSL version installed than before?
