+ * Revision 1.3  2004/04/01 12:50:09  mdw
+ * Add cyclic group abstraction, with test code.  Separate off exponentation
+ * functions for better static linking.  Fix a buttload of bugs on the way.
+ * Generally ensure that negative exponents do inversion correctly.  Add
+ * table of standard prime-field subgroups.  (Binary field subgroups are
+ * currently unimplemented but easy to add if anyone ever finds a good one.)

  * Revision 1.2  2004/03/21 22:52:06  mdw
  * Merge and close elliptic curve branch.
