Comment (by dd32):

 > Removed the function_exists( 'md5_file' ) check. I originally put it in
 after nofearinc's suggestion that PHP can be compiled without it, but I'm
 seeing very few reported instances of md5_file() missing, and nothing
 recently.

 Ah, nofearinc has suggested it would be unavailable when OpenSSL was
 unavailable, which isn't the case. PHP [https://github.com/php/php-
 src/blob/master/ext/standard/md5.c#L74 includes it's own MD5
 implementation] which can't be disabled at compile time. The only way to
 disable it is to include it in `disable_functions`
