Subject: The encoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERs and the conversion of BNs to

 compilation option to compensate for public keys improperly encoded as
 negative integers.

+  *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
+     to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
+     NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
+     key elements as negative integers.
+     [Steve Henson]

   *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
