Given a contemporary release of Tor with a contemporary version of OpenSSL, 
under what circumstances is the intrinsic curve25519_donna() preferred over the 
libsodium/NaCl crypto_scalarmult_curve25519(), or vice versa?

Does it come down to 32-bit vs. 64-bit?  Or CPU instruction sets detected at 
build time?

Or has libsodium/NaCl been deprecated altogether and just not removed from the 
configure script?

I'm trying to determine if installation of libsodium in a Tor build environment 
will yield a "better" Tor binary.

Thanks.
