	    Allow Erlang/OTP to use OpenSSL in FIPS-140 mode, in

	    Raised minimum requirement for OpenSSL version to
	    OpenSSL-0.9.8.c although we recommend a much higher
	    version, that is a version that is still maintained
	    officially by the OpenSSL project. Note that using such
	    an old version may restrict the crypto algorithms
	    supported.</p>

	    Integrate elliptic curve contribution from Andreas
	    Schultz </p>
          <p>
	    In order to be able to support elliptic curve cipher
	    suites in SSL/TLS, additions to handle elliptic curve
	    infrastructure has been added to public_key and crypto.</p>
          <p>
	    This also has resulted in a rewrite of the crypto API to
	    gain consistency and remove unnecessary overhead. All OTP
	    applications using crypto has been updated to use the new
	    API.</p>
          <p>
	    Impact: Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) offers
	    equivalent security with smaller key sizes than other
	    public key algorithms. Smaller key sizes result in
	    savings for power, memory, bandwidth, and computational
	    cost that make ECC especially attractive for constrained
	    environments.</p>

	    on all Windows versions.</p>

	    <p>Cross compilation improvements and other build system
	    improvements.</p>
	    <p>Most notable:</p> <list><item> Lots of cross
	    compilation improvements. The old cross compilation
	    support was more or less non-existing as well as broken.
	    Please, note that the cross compilation support should
	    still be considered as experimental. Also note that old
	    cross compilation configurations cannot be used without
	    modifications. For more information on cross compiling
	    Erlang/OTP see the <c>$ERL_TOP/INSTALL-CROSS.md</c> file.
	    </item><item> Support for staged install using <url
	    href="http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/DESTDIR.html">DESTDIR</url>.
	    The old broken <c>INSTALL_PREFIX</c> has also been fixed.
	    For more information see the <c>$ERL_TOP/INSTALL.md</c>
	    file. </item><item> Documentation of the <c>release</c>
	    target of the top <c>Makefile</c>. For more information
	    see the <c>$ERL_TOP/INSTALL.md</c> file. </item><item>
	    <c>make install</c> now by default creates relative
	    symbolic links instead of absolute ones. For more
	    information see the <c>$ERL_TOP/INSTALL.md</c> file.
	    </item><item> <c>$ERL_TOP/configure --help=recursive</c>
	    now works and prints help for all applications with
	    <c>configure</c> scripts. </item><item> Doing <c>make
	    install</c>, or <c>make release</c> directly after
	    <c>make all</c> no longer triggers miscellaneous
	    rebuilds. </item><item> Existing bootstrap system is now
	    used when doing <c>make install</c>, or <c>make
	    release</c> without a preceding <c>make all</c>.
	    </item><item> The <c>crypto</c> and <c>ssl</c>
	    applications use the same runtime library path when
	    dynamically linking against <c>libssl.so</c> and
	    <c>libcrypto.so</c>. The runtime library search path has
	    also been extended. </item><item> The <c>configure</c>
	    scripts of <c>erl_interface</c> and <c>odbc</c> now
	    search for thread libraries and thread library quirks the
	    same way as ERTS do. </item><item> The
	    <c>configure</c> script of the <c>odbc</c> application
	    now also looks for odbc libraries in <c>lib64</c> and
	    <c>lib/64</c> directories when building on a 64-bit
	    system. </item><item> The <c>config.h.in</c> file in the
	    <c>erl_interface</c> application is now automatically
	    generated in instead of statically updated which reduces
	    the risk of <c>configure</c> tests without any effect.

	    process. </p>
	    <p>- The arity calculation is updated.</p>
	    <p>- The module prefix used in the function names for
	    bif's are removed in the generated links so the links
	    will look like
	    "http://www.erlang.org/doc/man/erlang.html#append_element-2"
	    instead of
	    "http://www.erlang.org/doc/man/erlang.html#erlang:append_element-2".</p>
	    <p>- Enhanced the menu positioning in the html
	    documentation when a new page is loaded.</p>
	    <p>- A number of corrections in the generation of man
	    pages (thanks to Sergei Golovan)</p>
	    <p>- The legal notice is taken from the xml book file so
	    OTP's build process can be used for non OTP

          <p>Linked in drivers in the crypto, and asn1 applications
            are now compiled with the -D_THREAD_SAFE and -D_REENTRANT
            switches on unix when the emulator has thread support
            enabled.</p>
          <p>Linked in drivers on MacOSX are not compiled with the
            undocumented -lbundle1.o switch anymore. Thanks to Sean
            Hinde who sent us a patch.</p>
          <p>Linked in driver in crypto, and port programs in ssl, now
            compiles on OSF1.</p>
          <p>Minor makefile improvements in runtime_tools.</p>

          <p>Corrected error handling. If the port to the driver that
            crypto uses is unexpectedly closed (which should not
            happen during normal operation of crypto), crypto will
            terminate immediately (rather than crashing the next time
            crypto is used). Also corrected build problems on Mac OS
            X.</p>

          <p>It was not possible in R9 to relink the crypto driver.
            The object file was missing as well as an example
            makefile. The crypto driver object file is now released
            with the application (installed in priv/obj). An example
            makefile has also been added to the priv/obj directory.
            The makefile serves as an example of how to relink the
            driver on Unix (crypto_drv.so) or Windows
            (crypto_drv.dll).</p>

          <p>Previous versions of Crypto where delivered with
            statically linked binaries based on SSLeay. That is not
            longer the case.  The current version of Crypto requires
            dynamically linked OpenSSL libraries that the user has to
            install. The library needed is <c>libcrypto.so</c> (Unix)
            or <c>libeay32.[lib|dll]</c> (Win32). For further details
            see the crypto(6) application manual page.</p>

        <item>
          <p>This version of Crypto uses the new DES interface of
            OpenSSL 0.9.7, which is not backward compatible with
            earlier versions of OpenSSL.

        <item>The functions <c>des_ede3_cbc_encrypt/5</c> and

         respectively. The old functions have been retained (they are

        <item>To obtain backward compatibility with the old SSLeay
