+ Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e  [XX xxx XXXX]
+
+  *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
+     (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
+     When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
+     prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
+     encoding.  (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
+     of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
+     protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
+     ClientHello is fragmented.  (The server can't insist on the
+     particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
+     message has informed the client about his choice.)
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Add RFC 3779 support.
+     [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
+
+  *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
+     static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
+     Improve header file function name parsing.
