Log Message:
Update the netpgp package from version 20090428 to 20090525:

Changes since previous version:

CHANGES 1.99.3 -> 1.99.4

+ get rid of some magic constants
+ revamped regression test script to count number of tests passed
+ made checkhash array in ops_seckey_t dynamic, rather than statically
  allocated
+ made mdc array dynamic, and added a length field to mdc for future use
+ revamped usage message to match reality
+ made portable version again for the autoconfed package sources
+ add separate netpgpdigest.h file so that separate digest sizes can be
  used without having to include "packet.h" in everything

CHANGES 1.99.2 -> 1.99.3

+ modified regression tests to make it easier to see status messages
+ modified --encrypt, --decrypt, --sign, and --clearsign as well as --cat
  to respect the --output argument for the output file. Default behaviour
  remains unchanged - if --output is not specified, standard file names
  and suffixes apply. Note that --verify has not been changed - this is
  for compatibility with gpg, POLA/POLS, and because --verify-cat/--cat
  provides this behaviour

Get rid of a few TODO items that aren't needed.

CHANGES 1.99.1 -> 1.99.2

+ various minor cleanups
+ fix longstanding pasto where the key server preference packets are
  displayed with the correct ptag information
+ up until now, there has been an asymmetry in the command line
  options for netpgp(1) - whilst a file may have signature information
  added to it with the "--sign" command, there has been no way to
  retrieve the contents of the file without the signature.  The new
  "--cat" option does this (there are synonyms of "--verify-show" and
  "--verify-cat") - the signature is verified, and if it matches, the
  original contents of the file are sent to the output file (which
  defaults to stdout, and can be set with the --output option on the
  command line).  If the signature does not match, there is no output,
  and an EXIT_FAILURE code is returned.
+ revamped netpgp(1) to make it clear what commands are available, how
  these commands relate to each other, and which commands take custom
  options

CHANGES 1.0.0 -> 1.99.1

+ released and tagged version 1.0.0; development version now 1.99.1
+ get rid of some fields which are no longer needed
+ minor name changes
+ add mmapped field to ops_data_t struct to denote that the array needs an
  munmap(2) and not a free(3)
+ add an __ops_mem_readfile() function, and use it for reading files.
  The function does mmap(2), and then falls back to read(2) if that fails.
  Retire unused __ops_fileread() which had an unusual interface
+ drop sign_detached() from netpgp.c down into signature.c as
  __ops_sign_detached()

+ got rid of "local" header files. These aren't necessary since the openpgpsdk
  code was modified to all be in the same directory
+ added netpgp_getvar() and netpgp_setvar(), and use them to get and set the
  user id and hash algorithm preference
+ get rid of <stdbool.h> usage - I'm still not sure this is the way we should
  be going long term, but the bool changes got integrated with the others,
  and are there in cvs history if we want to resurrect them. Correct autoconf
  accordingly. Bump netpgp minimus version, and autoconf-based date version.
+ updated documentation to reflect these changes

Commit the weekend's changes:

+ minor name changes
+ remove duplicated code (commented out) in packet-print.c
+ original code contained abstraction violations for hash size - fix them
+ get rid of some magic constants related to length of hash arrays
+ allow a choice of hash algorithms for the signature digest (rather
  than hardcoding SHA1 - it is looking as though collisions are easier
  to manufacture based on recent findings)
+ move default signature RSA hash algorithm to SHA256 (from SHA1). This is
  passed as a string parameter from the high-level interface. We'll
  revisit this later after a good way to specify the algorithm has been
  found.
+ display the size of the keys in --list-packets
+ display the keydata prior to file decryption

+ add a --help option
+ if setrlimit exists, set the core dump size to be 0
  (with thanks to mrg for the reference implementation)
+ get rid of __ops_start_cleartext_sig/__ops_start_msg_sig abstractions
  and just "export" the __ops_start_sig function - the function is not
  actually exported, just usable by other __ops functions
+ bump internal version number to 0.99.2, autoconf version to 20090506
+ prettify usage message output

Change some names to something a bit less obscure.

e.g. For some unfathomable reason, I find "__ops_write_mem_from_file" a bit
counterintuitive - replace that by "__ops_fileread"

+ __ops_packet_t -> __ops_subpacket_t
+ __ops_parser_content_t -> __ops_packet_t
+ rename some other long names
  51 chars is the record function name length so far
+ preliminary moves to support detached signatures
  as yet, incomplete
+ add back command line option to list packets in a signed or encrypted file
+ make __ops_parse() take an argument whether to print errors, and kill the
  __ops_parse_and_print_errors() function
+ get rid of some assertions in the code - this is a library - about 100 to go

Make this code WARNS=4
Add an option to the netpgp command to produce a detached signature.
