  Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d  [xx XXX XXXX]
 
+  *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when 
+     X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
+     keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
+     extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
+     rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
+     for these cases.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
+     A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and 
+     some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
+     copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
+     parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
+     calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
+     this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
+     < 0.9.7.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
   *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
