b3c1d18d03 It makes more sense to refer to specific function manuals than the concept
manual when the specific function is refered to in the current manual text.
This correction was originally introduced in OpenBSD's tracking of OpenSSL.

31e441a805 These are updates/fixes to DH/DSA/RAND docs based on the fixes to the RSA
docs. There were a couple of other places where the docs were not
synchronised with the API that are now fixed. One or two still remain to be
fixed though ...

c3eb0c1e7f Various parts of the RSA documentation were inaccurate and out of date and
this fixes those that I'm currently aware of. In particular, the ENGINE
interference in the RSA API has hopefully been clarified. This still needs
to be done for other areas of the API ...

3f90e45079 A single monolithic man page for the ENGINE stuff. This is a rough
first-cut but provides better documentation than having nothing on the
ENGINE API.

0af9a89cef This documentation change was being written at the same time as Richard's
changes. So I'm committing this version to overwrite his changes for now,
and he can always take his turn to overwrite my words if he wants :-)

c2e4f17c1a Due to an increasing number of clashes between modern OpenSSL and
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.
