Component:  Tor        |        Version:

-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
 Right now, nothing uses the PK_PKCS1_PADDING value. And a good thing too,
 since it's completely wrong for encryption, and the stuff that does
 signing already uses it, hardwired.

 To avoid regrettable accidents in the future, we should remove PK_PKCS1
 from crypto.h, and make (most?) stuff that used to support it, not.
