Some non-GNU compilers (such as Sun C) define __i386.

+     the apps/openssl applications.
+     [Nils Larsch]
+
+  *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
+     -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
+     DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.

   *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
      The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".

+ Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f  [22 Mar 2005]
+
+  *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
+     server and client random values. Previously
+     (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
+     less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
+
+     This change has negligible security impact because:
+
+     1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
+        data.
+
+     2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
+        handshake.
+
+     3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
+        size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
+        values.
+
+     The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
+     to our attention.

      prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.

      failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
