 =head1 DESCRIPTION
 
-RSA_new() allocates and initializes an B<RSA> structure.
+RSA_new() allocates and initializes an B<RSA> structure. It is equivalent to
+calling RSA_new_method(NULL).
 
 RSA_free() frees the B<RSA> structure and its components. The key is
-erased before the memory is erased returned to the system.
+erased before the memory is returned to the system.
+If B<rsa> is NULL nothing is done.
 
 =head1 RETURN VALUES
 
 If the allocation fails, RSA_new() returns B<NULL> and sets an error
-code that can be obtained by ERR_get_error(3). Otherwise it returns
+code that can be obtained by L<ERR_get_error(3)>. Otherwise it returns
 a pointer to the newly allocated structure.
 
 RSA_free() returns no value.
