+ * Revision 1.3  2000/07/29 17:03:31  mdw
+ * Add support for left-to-right bitscanning, for use in modular
+ * exponentiation.
+ *
+ * Revision 1.2  2000/06/17 11:45:09  mdw
+ * Major memory management overhaul.  Added arena support.  Use the secure
+ * arena for secret integers.  Replace and improve the MP management macros
+ * (e.g., replace MP_MODIFY by MP_DEST).
+ *
  * Revision 1.1  1999/11/17 18:02:16  mdw
  * New multiprecision integer arithmetic suite.
