The outcome here is presumably going to be failure regardless - if
appraisal is required and the hash module is unavailable, failing to load
the module won't result in deadlock but will result in an unusable machine?
I think the only way this can work is to ensure the crypto modules are
available before a policy is enabled, but let me look to see if there's a
way to at least make the failure clean and more debuggable.
