Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.8 [xx XXX xxxx]
+ *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
+ associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
+
+ *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
+ and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
+ BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
+ if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
+ [Geoff Thorpe]
+
*) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
initialised value as BN_new().
