+  *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
+     and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
+     software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
+     also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.

   *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
      primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in

      FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
