  Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5  [xx XXX 2000]
 
+  *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
+     [Andy Polyakov]
+
+  *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
+     equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
+     [Ulf Möller]
+
+  *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
+     options to produce them.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
+     get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
+     [Ulf Möller]
+
+  *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
+     for p == 0.
+     [Ulf Möller]
+
+  *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
+     include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
+     was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
+     SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
+     link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
+     and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
+     one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
+     a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
+     loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
+     [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
+
+  *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
+     use void * instead of char * in lhash.
+     [Ulf Möller] 
+
   *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
      (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
      this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client

      This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
-     and DSA_generate_parameters: They are now called once for each
-     positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just occasionally
-     in the inner loop; and the parameters to the callback function now
-     provide an iteration count for the outer loop rather than for the
-     current invocation of the inner loop.

+     DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
+     function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
+     candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated 
+     from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
