libdes (which is still used out there) or other des implementations,
the OpenSSL DES functions are renamed to begin with DES_ instead of
des_.  Compatibility routines are provided and declared by including
openssl/des_old.h.  Those declarations are the same as were in des.h
when the OpenSSL project started, which is exactly how libdes looked
at that time, and hopefully still looks today.

The compatibility functions will be removed in some future release, at
the latest in version 1.0.

Retain compatibility of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal()
with existing code.

Modify library to use digest *_ex() functions.

to go the monolith way (does anyone do that these days?).

NOTE: a few applications are missing in this commit.  I've a few more
changes in them that I haven't tested yet.

Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().

Note: this is almost identical to the patch submitted to openssl-dev
by Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com> except some redundant
EVP_add_digest_()/EVP_cleanup() calls were removed and some changes
made to avoid compiler warnings.

missed any.

This compiles and runs on Linux, and external applications have no
problems with it.  The definite test will be to build this on VMS.

sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
opensslconf.h.

I've checked fairly well that nothing breaks with this (apart from
external software that will adapt if they have used something like
NO_KRB5), but I can't guarantee it completely, so a review of this
change would be a good thing.

password verification where it makes sense.

record-oriented fashion.  That means that every write() will write a
separate record, which will be read separately by the programs trying
to read from it.  This can be very confusing.

The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer text
until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a line at a
time, so every record written will be an actual line, not chunks of
lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've seen it once) several
lines in one record.  Voila, BIO_f_linebuffer() is born.

Since we're so close to release time, I'm making this VMS-only for
now, just to make sure no code is needlessly broken by this.  After
the release, this BIO method will be enabled on all other platforms as
well.

(Still needs to be tested against the original using sample passwords
of different length.)

like Malloc, Realloc and especially Free conflict with already existing names
on some operating systems or other packages.  That is reason enough to change
the names of the OpenSSL memory allocation macros to something that has a
better chance of being unique, like prepending them with OPENSSL_.

This change includes all the name changes needed throughout all C files.
