SHA256 is a hash function. And the change is not about replacing
it, but about _adding_ it. So Cuis then has algorithms for sha1,
sha256 and DSA.
SHA1 has three tests, the now added sha-256 has six tests. The
Digital signature algorithm (DSA) has no tests. So the current
state of the matter is not ideal to begin with.
