+B<BN_ULONG> is a macro that will be an unsigned integral type optimized
+for the most efficient implementation on the local platform.

BN_zero(), BN_one() and BN_set_word() set B<a> to the values 0, 1 and
B<w> respectively. BN_zero() and BN_one() are macros.
BN_value_one() returns a B<BIGNUM> constant of value 1. This constant
is useful for use in comparisons and assignment.

-BN_get_word() returns B<a>, if it can be represented as an unsigned
-long.
+BN_get_word() returns B<a>, if it can be represented as a B<BN_ULONG>.
-BN_get_word() returns the value B<a>, and 0xffffffffL if B<a> cannot
-be represented as an unsigned long.
+BN_get_word() returns the value B<a>, or all-bits-set if B<a> cannot
+be represented as a single integer.
BN_one() and BN_set_word() return 1 on success, 0 otherwise.
BN_value_one() returns the constant.
BN_one() and BN_set_word() return 1 on success, 0 otherwise.
BN_value_one() returns the constant.
-If a B<BIGNUM> is equal to 0xffffffffL it can be represented as an
-unsigned long but this value is also returned on error.
+If a B<BIGNUM> is equal to the value of all-bits-set, it will collide
+with the error condition returned by BN_get_word() which uses that
+as an error value.
+
+B<BN_ULONG> should probably be a typedef.
