+ Fix fatal bug when using a hmac context variable in more
+ than one call to <c>hmac_update</c> or <c>hmac_final</c>.
+ The reuse of hmac contexts has never worked as the
+ underlying OpenSSL implementation does not support it. It
+ is now documented as having undefined behaviour, but it
+ does not crash or corrupt the VM anymore.</p>

+ percept, public_key, reltool, runtime_tools, ssh,
+ syntax_tools, test_server, tools, typer, webtool, wx,
+ xmerl</c></p>
+ <p>
+ A new test utility for testing appup files is added to
+ test_server. This is now used by most applications in
+ OTP.</p>

+ By giving --enable-static-{nifs,drivers} to configure it

+ been prepared to be statically linked. For more details
