=item "fips-indicator" (B<OSSL_MAC_PARAM_FIPS_APPROVED_INDICATOR>) <int>
A getter that returns 1 if the operation is FIPS approved, or 0 otherwise.
This may be used after calling the final function. It may return 0 if
"no-short-mac" are set to 0. This option is used by the OpenSSL FIPS
provider.

If required this parameter should be set early via an init function.
The default value of 1 causes an error when too short MAC output is
asked for. Setting this to 0 will ignore the error and set the approved
"fips-indicator" to 0. This option is used by the OpenSSL FIPS provider,
and breaks FIPS compliance if set to 0.
