For the checksum verification it might be ok to use openssl since it's in
base for almost all BSD system. But what about linux? You'll have to install
it before using makepkg, and this means a dependency.
In the case of CHOST usage, I haven't explained it fine. It's not related to
this checksum issue. I'll try to explain it better in another thread :)

it works.
I got some other ideas for handling different OSes via CHOST variable. Let me few days to test it.
Actually, it is better to avoid this when possible. The openssl solution is very nice and clean because it works the same on all systems. You don't need any specific checks.
