- update from current 0.9.6-stable CHANGES file

- update from current 0.9.7-stable CHANGES file:

  Now here we have "CHANGES between 0.9.7e and 0.9.8", and I hope
  that all patches mentioned for 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e actually are
  in the CVS HEAD, i.e. what is to become 0.9.8.

  I have rewritten the 'openssl ca -create_serial' entry (0.9.8)
  so that it explains the earlier change that is now listed (0.9.7e).

  The ENGINE_set_default typo bug entry has been moved from 0.9.8
  to 0.9.7b, which is where it belongs.

   *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
      exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
      the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.

-  *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
-     violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities. 
-     This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
-     number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
-     certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
-     number file is now moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new
-     option -create_serial.

+     (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
+     number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems.  To avoid
+     the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
+     patchlevels, 0.9.7e  employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
+     CA.pl for serial number initialization.  With the new release 0.9.8,
+     we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
