Since it seems you plan to use libcrypto from OpenSSL anyway:
https://gist.github.com/barrysteyn/7308212#file-base64decode-c

Otherwise I'd prefer something less obtuse, there is C++ code with
compatible license or I could roll my own.

For upset, I don't know what interface you're using.  For the object
interface you'd simply switch from hexdigest() to b64digest() and for
the functional interface from sha512_hex() to sha512_base64().

Achim.
