Thinking about imaevm_params -- it's still belong to a library and
extensively used in libimaevm.c, so I wonder if the fix is perfect.
Since, now there is hash_algo and algo duplication which one to prefer
and why?

Maybe, it should be [also] set like keypass in sign_hash?

  int sign_hash(const char *hashalgo, const unsigned char *hash, int size, const char *keyfile, const char *keypass, unsigned char *sig)
  {
	  if (keypass)
		  imaevm_params.keypass = keypass;

+	  if (hashalgo)
+		  imaevm_params.hash_algo = hashalgo;

	  return imaevm_params.x509 ?
		  sign_hash_v2(hashalgo, hash, size, keyfile, sig) :
		  sign_hash_v1(hashalgo, hash, size, keyfile, sig);
  }
