With Go 1.24, the standard library includes a FIPS 140-3 module that is currently under certification. Go programs can be started with FIPS 140-3 compliant crypto implementations via GODEBUG=fips140=on.

Hence, the experimental and not officially supported boringcrypto checks can be dropped. For additional information around Go and FIPS 140-3 refer to: https://go.dev/doc/security/fips140
