Describe the issue:

Linux systems with FIPS mode active disable algorithms that aren't part of the FIPS standard such as the md5 message digest/checksum.

Reproduce the code example:

If I install numpy from the git version:

$ spin build

### Python and NumPy Versions:

[user@machine numpy]$ python --version
Python 3.12.4
I used git main branch version.

### Runtime Environment:

The key aspect on my runtime environment is that Linux FIPS mode is activated.
It's a Fedora 39 system.

### Context for the issue:

This patch fixes the issue:
