What about:

#ifdef USE_FIPS
     if(FIPS_mode()!=global_options.option.fips) {
         RAND_set_rand_method(NULL); /* reset RAND methods */
         if(!FIPS_mode_set(global_options.option.fips)) {
             ERR_load_crypto_strings();
             sslerror("FIPS_mode_set");
             return 0;
         }
         s_log(LOG_NOTICE, "FIPS mode %s",
             global_options.option.fips ? "enabled" : "disabled");
     }
#endif /* USE_FIPS */
