OK, attached is a patch against CVS mainline. For me it works in both
static and shared versions. > other engines have changed since 0.9.7 for

I didn't get it, sorry. Should I make the Padlock support always static
as is the cryptodev? The PadLock is available on new VIA Nehemiah CPUs
and if present (and successfully detected by the Padlock engine
initialization routine) it should be used, yes. But that's the same
situation as with other engines, isn't it?
