Hi, this patch backports a fix from trunk ChangeLog 2013-01-30 Kai Tietz <ktietz@redhat.com> 2012-07-31 Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> Merged from trunk. PR other/53285 * md5.c (md5_finish_ctx): Declare swap_bytes. Assign SWAP() output to swap_bytes, and then call memcpy to move it to ctx->buffer. Tested for x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, i686-w64-mingw32, and i686-pc-cygwin. Ok for apply? Regards, Kai
