Great, I'll look at the files.  Your attachment didn't make it to the mailing 
list, as the size limit is 40kB, but it came to the admin address (me).

- From what you mention above, the only overlap is the PRNG, everything else 
appears to be new.

I had considered using progress signals for the lengthy tasks (like key gen), 
but I wasn't sure how worthwhile it would be.  I figured it would be simpler 
to just thread the task if you didn't want to stall the GUI, and just don't 
bother about progress information.  My P4 1.6GHz can generate a 1024-bit RSA 
key using OpenSSL in about 1 second.

And is this the same "Kiko" that helped with Psi SSL back in the day?  Where 
have you been? :)
