Subject: Re: Re: [RFC] sha2: new <sha2.h> header


  I think the main point isn't corner cases, the main point is that
those functions (as well-written and useful as they are) are not
standardized to be included in a libc, and that would make
depending on them nonportable and/or hazardous.

  I agree with Rich's point: sha2 and other cryptographic functions
have their place in a user library, not in a libc.
