(there will be an error if you use `cloak_md5`, but everything will work fine if you use `cloak_sha256`). We phased out MD5 usage years ago, so it is only contained to the old cloaking module. In fact that was the only reason we started to provide the SHA256 cloaking module, simply so it isn't using old MD5. Of course, for module coders this means they should not call DoMD5() or md5hash(), but that would be rare. Currently zero modules in unrealircd contrib do this and it makes no sense to start using it nowadays anyway.
