9 | - switch to using RSA_generate_key_ex, which is the badly documented |
|
|
10 | and needlessly more complicated replacement for the RSA_generate_key |
|

12 | - change public exponent for rsa keys from 65535 to 65537, for |

14 | - nodes would sometimes declare transport endpoints valid despite |

19 | - prefer inet_aton over gethostbyname, as the latter is not guaranteed |
