Managed to work around this issue by changing the default hashing algorithm in the configure file from SHA512 to MD. Needed a server rebuild.

Adding --with-password-backend=XXX to the configure call should be enough. For some reason your OpenSSL was compiled without SHA512 support, or it is too old. Note that MD5 is the weakest hash you can chose these days. SHA256 should be available in your OpenSSL version.
