Comment (by Otto42):

 OpenSSL 0.9.8o and 1.0.0a (1 Jun 2010) added the default-to-on support for
 the SHA2 library of algorithms wrt SSL.

 https://www.openssl.org/docs/ssl/SSL_library_init.html

 > OpenSSL 0.9.8o and 1.0.0a and later added SHA2 algorithms to
 SSL_library_init(). Applications which need to use SHA2 in earlier
 versions of OpenSSL should call OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() as well.

 However, it appears that every version of 0.9.8 and up (5 Jul 2005) had
 optional support for it, if you called the OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms()
 function:

 Curl appears to have added this particular call to their trunk code in
 2009:
