Looks like I never tested 842 which curiously does not have a
self-test. Please try this patch:
---8<---
As the scomp streams are freed when an algorithm is unregistered,
it is possible that the algorithm has never been used at all (e.g.,
an algorithm that does not have a self-test). So test whether the
streams exist before freeing them.
