DSA is unencumbered... I'm not sure about CAST

DSA is public domain, CAST is an Entrust algorithm but I'm not sure if their
patent is still active.

I have an application using the OpenSSL S/MIME interface. When
I generate an encryptred message using DES, the DES key generated does not have
odd parity. The key is generated in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataInit by
calling RAND_bytes().
In testing interoperability with the NIST S/MIME test center
I would like to be able to add some of my own S/MIME signed
attributes based on characteristics of the message.
Could a callback procedure be added to
pk7_smime.c:PKCS7_sign() to support such a feature?

PKCS7_sign() is meant to be a simple PKC
Regarding CAST, see http://www.ietf.org/ietf/IPR//CAST-128-entrust. BTW, section 8 of
RFC 3280 points to http://www.ietf.org/ipr.html.

And additionally http://www.ietf.org/ietf/IPR/CAST-256-entrust says the
same for CAST-256.

Running an app that uses OpenSSL here through valgrind:

I noticed a small inconsistency in OpenSSL.
According to the OpenSSL documentation, applications that want to
resume sessions should call "SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context()" to
provide a unique identifier to be stored with their session caches.
However, observing the behavior of OpenSSL and lookin

The attached patch adds Configure script support for VxWorks for PowerPC
860, fixes a compile problem with VxWorks builds, and fixes build problems
with no-md2.
