3New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
4 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
5 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
6 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.

5 completely unknown protocols, to force mediated connection requests. 12 completely unknown protocols, to force mediated connection requests.
6 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: dns transport protocol bumped to version 2. 13 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: dns transport protocol bumped to version 2.
14 - switch to using RSA_generate_key_ex, which is the undocumented
15 and needlessly more complicated replacement for the RSA_generate_key
16 function which is now deprecated.
17 - change public exponent for rsa keys from 65535 to 65537, for
18 efficiency reasons.
19 - nodes would sometimes declare transport endpoints valid despite
20 the protocol not being configured locally.
7 - core protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases. 21 - core protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
22 - new global configuration options: chroot, chuser, chuid, chgid,
23 to chroot to a specified or anonymous new root, and change user id.
24 - prefer inet_aton over gethostbyname, as the latter is not guaranteed
25 to "resolve" literal ip addresses.
26 - configure didn't detect openssl 1.0 because SHA1_version became private
27 (patch by TANIGUCHI Takaki).
8 - fix a bug where nodes would tell the other side that it supports 28 - fix a bug where nodes would tell the other side that it supports
9 the same protocols as that other side, instead of its own. 29 the same protocols as that other side, instead of its own.
10 - add zlib when found, as openssl depends on it in newer versions. 30 - add zlib when found, as openssl depends on it in newer versions.
11 - work around append-bugs in uclibc by using an extra seek. 31 - work around append-bugs in uclibc by using an extra seek.
12 - new "include" directive for the config file. 32 - new "include" directive for the config file.
13 - gvpectrl no longer evaluates any "on" directives. 33 - gvpectrl no longer evaluates any "on" directives.
34 - icmp and rawip protocols weren't upgradable to each other.
14 - major, but incremental, dns transport improvements: 35 - major, but incremental, dns transport improvements:
15 - do not simply abort in some error cases in the dns transport, 36 - do not simply abort in some error cases in the dns transport,

21 - back off far quicker in dns tunnel when idling - increases 42 - back off far quicker in dns tunnel when idling - increases
22 latency on an idle link somewhat, but avoids hundreds of 43 latency on an idle link somewhat, but avoids hundreds of
23 needless packets. 44 needless packets.
24 - poll more aggressively when idling in dns (poll once per 45 - poll more aggressively when idling in dns (poll once per
25 second as opposed to once per 5 seconds). 46 second as opposed to once per 5 seconds).
47 - reduce dns send payload size to allow greater rate of ack
48 messages (should help sack and ipv6).
49 - allow for ip options in rawip/icmp transports, even though gvpe
50 doesn't generate them.
51 - upgrade to libev 4 API.
