 OpenSSL CHANGES
 _______________


 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4

  *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
     and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
     Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
     KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
     value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
     value doesn't matter.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
     support mutable.
     [Ben Laurie]

  *) "linux-sparc64-gcc" configuration (ultrapenguin).
     [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]

  *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
