- update from current 0.9.7-stable CHANGES file:

  Now here we have "CHANGES between 0.9.7e and 0.9.8", and I hope
  that all patches mentioned for 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e actually are
  in the CVS HEAD, i.e. what is to become 0.9.8.

  I have rewritten the 'openssl ca -create_serial' entry (0.9.8)
  so that it explains the earlier change that is now listed (0.9.7e).

  The ENGINE_set_default typo bug entry has been moved from 0.9.8
  to 0.9.7b, which is where it belongs.

small key sizes seems to result from the code continually regenerating the
same prime value once the range is small enough. From my tests, this change
fixes the problem by setting an escape velocity of 3 repeats for the second
of the two primes.

changes are the fallout). As this could break source code that doesn't
directly include headers for interfaces it uses, changes to recursive
includes are covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. It's better to
define this when building and using openssl, and then adapt code where
necessary - this is how to stay current. However the mechanism exists for
the lethargic.

make update

available compiler versions generated bogus machine code trying to
compile new crypto/des/cfb_enc.c. Secondly, 8th version defines
__GNUC__ macro, but fails to compile *some* inline assembler correctly.
Note that all versions of icc implement MSC-like _lrot[rl] intrinsic,
which is used now instead of offensive asm. Finally, unnecessary linker
dependencies are eliminated. Most notably dependency from libirc.a
caused trouble at application start-up, if libcrypto.so is linked with
-Bsymbolic (which it is).

Update S/MIME code and EVP_SealInit to use new functions.
