  Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6  [xx XXX 2000]
 
+  *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
+     perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
+     be obtained from the error queue.
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
+     it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
+     accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
+     thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
+     [Ulf Möller]
+
+  *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
+     RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
+     Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
+     or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
+     RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
+     [Geoff Thorpe]
+
+  *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
+     that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
+     that are sufficiently small and have no path information
+     into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
+     "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
+     [Geoff Thorpe]
+
+  *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
+     ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
+     including the 0 terminator.  For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
+     may not be NULL.
+     [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
+
   *) CONF library reworked to become more general.  A new CONF
      configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
      new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it.  The now
