- Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [xx XXX 2001]
+ Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [XX xxx XXXX]
+
+ *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
+ in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
+ RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
+ caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
+ Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
+ DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
+ For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
+ environment variables.
+
+ *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
+ CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
+ having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
+ combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
+ Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
+ flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
+ the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegaly release the lock
+ that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
+ versions of 'test'.

+
+ Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
+
+ *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
+ [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
*) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
copied!)
