With that I get:

lib/sha1.c:226:1: error: ‘selectany’ attribute applies only to
initialized variables with external linkage

and it dies.

The line is:

__weak void sha1_process(sha1_context *ctx, const unsigned char *data,
unsigned int blocks)

I tried adding a prototype to the header but got the same error.
