The initial testing of Keccak went well. It was fine on both Linux and 
Windows from the command line. Windows command line testing uses VC++ build 
tools from the command line and 'cryptest.nmake' 
(http://github.com/weidai11/cryptopp/blob/master/cryptest.nmake).

If there are no objections, I'll merge this soon.
