First off, thanks to Martin Marcel for pointing out several bugs and
helping me fix them.

Changes

v0.26 -- Fixed typo that caused warning with GCC 3.2

~ -- Martin Marcel noticed a bug in mp_neg() that allowed negative
zeroes. Also, Martin is the fellow who noted the bugs in mp_gcd() of
0.24/0.25.

~ -- Martin Marcel noticed an optimization [and slight bug] in
mp_lcm().

~ -- Added fix to mp_read_unsigned_bin to prevent a buffer overflow.

~ -- Beefed up the comments in the baseline multipliers [and
montgomery]

~ -- Added "mont" demo to the makefile.msvc in etc/

~ -- Optimized sign compares in mp_cmp from 4 to 2 cases.

Also there is a mailing list for both LibTom projects. See details at:
~ http://libtomcrypt.org/mailing_list.html

I have tested the pre_gen/mpi.c in LibTomCrypt 0.89 [with the usual
tweak, you have to include "mycrypt.h" before tommath.h in mpi.c] and it
worked just fine.

LibTomMath is available on the web for free at: http://math.libtomcrypt.org.

For those who don't already know: LibTomMath is a free [as in public
domain] open source ISO C library that provides decently efficient
multiple precision arithmetic operations. The library is entirely
portable and has been tested on numerous platforms.
