v0.39 -- Jim Wigginton pointed out my Montgomery examples in figures 6.4 and 6.6 were off by one, k should be 9 not 8
-- Bruce Guenter suggested I use --tag=CC for libtool builds where the compiler may think it's C++.
-- "mm" from sci.crypt pointed out that my mp_gcd was sub-optimal (I also updated and corrected the book)
-- updated some of the @@ tags in tommath.src to reflect source changes.
-- updated email and url info in all source files
Jan 26th, 2006
v0.38 -- broken makefile.shared fixed
-- removed some carry stores that were not required [updated text]
November 18th, 2005
v0.37 -- [Don Porter] reported on a TCL list [HEY SEND ME BUGREPORTS ALREADY!!!] that mp_add_d() would compute -0 with some inputs. Fixed.
-- [rinick@gmail.com] reported the makefile.bcc was messed up. Fixed.
-- [Kevin Kenny] reported some issues with mp_toradix_n(). Now it doesn't require a min of 3 chars of output.
-- Made the make command renamable. Wee
August 1st, 2005
v0.36 -- LTM_PRIME_2MSB_ON was fixed and the "OFF" flag was removed.
-- [Peter LaDow] found a typo in the XREALLOC macro
-- [Peter LaDow] pointed out that mp_read_(un)signed_bin should have "const" on the input
-- Ported LTC patch to fix the prime_random_ex() function to get the bitsize correct [and the maskOR flags]
-- Kevin Kenny pointed out a stray //
-- David Hulton pointed out a typo in the textbook [mp_montgomery_setup() pseudo-code]
-- Neal Hamilton (Elliptic Semiconductor) pointed out that my Karatsuba notation was backwards and that I could use
unsigned operations in the routine.
-- Paul Schmidt pointed out a linking error in mp_exptmod() when BN_S_MP_EXPTMOD_C is undefined (and another for read_radix)
-- Updated makefiles to be way more flexible
March 12th, 2005
v0.35 -- Stupid XOR function missing line again... oops.
-- Fixed bug in invmod not handling negative inputs correctly [Wolfgang Ehrhardt]
-- Made exteuclid always give positive u3 output...[ Wolfgang Ehrhardt ]
-- [Wolfgang Ehrhardt] Suggested a fix for mp_reduce() which avoided underruns. ;-)
-- mp_rand() would emit one too many digits and it was possible to get a 0 out of it ... oops
-- Added montgomery to the testing to make sure it handles 1..10 digit moduli correctly
-- Fixed bug in comba that would lead to possible erroneous outputs when "pa < digs"
-- Fixed bug in mp_toradix_size for "0" [Kevin Kenny]
-- Updated chapters 1-5 of the textbook ;-) It now talks about the new comba code!
February 12th, 2005
v0.34 -- Fixed two more small errors in mp_prime_random_ex()
-- Fixed overflow in mp_mul_d() [Kevin Kenny]
-- Added mp_to_(un)signed_bin_n() functions which do bounds checking for ya [and report the size]
-- Added "large" diminished radix support. Speeds up things like DSA where the moduli is of the form 2^k - P for some P < 2^(k/2) or so
Actually is faster than Montgomery on my AMD64 (and probably much faster on a P4)
-- Updated the manual a bit
-- Ok so I haven't done the textbook work yet... My current freelance gig has landed me in France till the
end of Feb/05. Once I get back I'll have tons of free time and I plan to go to town on the book.
As of this release the API will freeze. At least until the book catches up with all the changes. I welcome
bug reports but new algorithms will have to wait.
December 23rd, 2004
v0.33 -- Fixed "small" variant for mp_div() which would munge with negative dividends...
-- Fixed bug in mp_prime_random_ex() which would set the most significant byte to zero when
no special flags were set
-- Fixed overflow [minor] bug in fast_s_mp_sqr()
-- Made the makefiles easier to configure the group/user that ltm will install as
-- Fixed "final carry" bug in comba multipliers. (Volkan Ceylan)
-- Matt Johnston pointed out a missing semi-colon in mp_exptmod
October 29th, 2004
v0.32 -- Added "makefile.shared" for shared object support
-- Added more to the build options/configs in the manual
-- Started the Depends framework, wrote dep.pl to scan deps and
produce "callgraph.txt" ;-)
-- Wrote SC_RSA_1 which will enable close to the minimum required to perform
RSA on 32-bit [or 64-bit] platforms with LibTomCrypt
-- Merged in the small/slower mp_div replacement. You can now toggle which
you want to use as your mp_div() at build time. Saves roughly 8KB or so.
-- Renamed a few files and changed some comments to make depends system work better.
(No changes to function names)
-- Merged in new Combas that perform 2 reads per inner loop instead of the older
3reads/2writes per inner loop of the old code. Really though if you want speed
learn to use TomsFastMath ;-)
August 9th, 2004
v0.31 -- "profiled" builds now :-) new timings for Intel Northwoods
-- Added "pretty" build target
-- Update mp_init() to actually assign 0's instead of relying on calloc()
-- "Wolfgang Ehrhardt" <Wolfgang.Ehrhardt@munich.netsurf.de> found a bug in mp_mul() where if
you multiply a negative by zero you get negative zero as the result. Oops.
-- J Harper from PeerSec let me toy with his AMD64 and I got 60-bit digits working properly
[this also means that I fixed a bug where if sizeof(int) < sizeof(mp_digit) it would bug]
Major changes:
- Added alternate command names.
- Don't allow imaginary numbers in integer only expressions.
- Made poly_gcd_simp() do its job in one pass.

Update to 0.9-2:
Version 0.9-2, 2006/02/13
Fix minor typo in wle.fracdiff.Rd and in wle.var.test.Rd. Rewrite some part
of wle.vonmises.R and wle.wrappednormal.R since there were a problem on
looking for mutiple roots.
Version 0.9-1, 2005/12/6
Set up a NAMESPACE file.
Functions wle.wrappednormal and wle.vonmises use atan2 call instead of atan.
mle.aic has a new argument 'se' so that standard errors are reported for the
parameters of each submodel. wle.fracdiff and related functions are partialy
rewritten.
Version 0.9, 2005/04/16
This version should works under gcc-4.0 too.
Many fortran sources are removed since already included in R (blas functions)
Function qrgnin.f is modified by Prof. B. Ripley so that it does not use
entry point.
Version 0.8-1, 2005/04/10
Fixed bugs in wlestepwise.f and mlestepwise.f
The calls to the packages ts and ctest are removed.
The function wle.aic.ar (and its summaries) is added.
Add the dataset rocky
Version 0.8, 2004/10/05
Fix file wle.lm.summaries.Rd
Release 1.6 (2006-06-19) adds various bug fixes, plus support for making
dimensions WITHOUT dimvars (coordinate variables), although I think this
is a bad idea in general. ALSO, the default behavior for put.var.ncdf
with unlimited variables and NO specified start and count parameters has
changed! Before, the default was to append to the end of the existing
variable. Now, the default is to assume a start of 1 along each
dimension, and a count of the current length of each dimension. This
really can be ambiguous when using an unlimited dimension. I always
specify both start and count when writing to a variable with an
unlimited dimension, and suggest you do as well. I make require this in
a future release, as it seems to cause people problems.
since they always need a C compiler, even when the source code is
completely in C++.
For some other packages, stated in the comment that a C compiler is
really not needed.
changes:
* Added support for constants e, log2(e), log10(e), ln(2), ln(10), pi,
pi/2, pi/4, 1/pi, 2/pi, 2/sqrt(pi), sqrt(2) and sqrt(1/2).
* Fixed bug with using global instead of evaluator specific symbol table
variable in evaluator_get_variables() function.
and add a new helper target and script, "show-buildlink3", that outputs
a listing of the buildlink3.mk files included as well as the depth at
which they are included.
For example, "make show-buildlink3" in fonts/Xft2 displays:
zlib
fontconfig
iconv
zlib
freetype2
expat
freetype2
Xrender
renderproto
* Correct bug in configure script: --enable-portable-binary option was ignored!
* Threads compilation fix on AIX: prefer xlc_r to cc_r, and don't use
either if we are using gcc.
* Updated FAQ to note that Apple gcc 4.0.1 on MacOS/Intel is broken,
and suggest a workaround. configure script now detects Core/Duo arch.
* Use -maltivec when checking for altivec.h.
