 BN_get_word() returns the value B<a>, and 0xffffffffL if B<a> cannot
 be represented as an unsigned long.
 
-BN_zero(), BN_one() and BN_set_word() return 1 on success, 0 otherwise.
+BN_one(), BN_set_word() and the deprecated version of BN_zero()
+return 1 on success, 0 otherwise.
 BN_value_one() returns the constant.
+The preferred version of BN_zero() never fails and returns no value.
 
 =head1 BUGS
 
 Someone might change the constant.
 
+If a B<BIGNUM> is equal to 0xffffffffL it can be represented as an
+unsigned long but this value is also returned on error.
