Er O.K. hash +padding is too large for the ECC keysize. Which it almost
certainly  will be since the larest ECC key defined is 521 bits.

Thanks for the suggestion :D

I am able to use the SNAP version (although I had to link statically
my application because I have not being able to build the shared lib
version on my system...), although the RSA with SHA2 gives me problem
when I want to use the SHA384 or SHA512 (works ok with SHA224 or SHA256).

Anybody have tried those (>256) with RSA ? The error I get is when I try
to sign the certificate (or the request) :(

Later,
Max
