-DES_set_key() works like
-DES_set_key_checked() if the I<DES_check_key> flag is non-zero,
-otherwise like DES_set_key_unchecked().  These functions are available

+DES_set_key() works like DES_set_key_checked() and remains for
+backward compatibility.
 
 DES_set_odd_parity() sets the parity of the passed I<key> to odd.
