+ Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
+ incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).

- +) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
- If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is

- handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
- by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function

+
+ *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
+ is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be

+ [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]

- TODO: SSL 2.0, doc/ssl/, doc/apps/
+ *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake

+ variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
[Bodo Moeller]
+ +) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
+ soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
+ openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
+ This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
+ the configuration scripts.

+ additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
+ when reusing an existing buffer.
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
+ instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
+ appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
+ become invalid.
+ [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
+
+ +) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
+ This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ +) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
+ runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
+ [Ben Laurie]
+
+ +) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
+ of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
+ extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
+ has the same effect.

+
+ *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
+ faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
+ not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
+ simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
+ TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
+ messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
+ strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.

*) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
