Fixes for the amalgamation generator for internal headers.
Remove BOTAN_DLL exporting macros from all internal-only headers;
the classes/functions there don't need to be exported, and
avoiding the PIC/GOT indirection can be a big win.
Add missing BOTAN_DLLs where necessary, mostly gfpmath and cvc
For GCC, use -fvisibility=hidden and set BOTAN_DLL to the
visibility __attribute__ to export those classes/functions.

containers (specifically vector).
Rename is_empty to empty
Remove has_items
Rename create to resize

Pretty much useless and unused, except for listing the module names in
build.h and the short versions totally suffice for that.

just too fragile and not that useful. Something like Java's checked exceptions
might be nice, but simply killing the process entirely if an unexpected
exception is thrown is not exactly useful for something trying to be robust.

the info.txt files with the right module dependencies.
Apply it across the codebase.

up during the Fedora submission review, that each source file include some
text about the license. One handy Perl script later and each file now has
the line
Distributed under the terms of the Botan license
after the copyright notices.
While I was in there modifying every file anyway, I also stripped out the
remainder of the block comments (lots of astericks before and after the
text); this is stylistic thing I picked up when I was first learning C++
but in retrospect it is not a good style as the structure makes it harder
to modify comments (with the result that comments become fewer, shorter and
are less likely to be updated, which are not good things).

a new member function rekey, calling it from both reseed and add_entropy.
Previously add_entropy worked without this because the PRNG would reseed
itself automatically if it was not at the point when randomize() was called,
but once this was removed it was necessary to ensure a rekey kicked off,
if appropriate, when calling add_entropy.

randomize, or PRNG_Unseeded will be thrown.

Combine the fast and slow polls, into a single poll() operation.
Instead of being given a buffer to write output into, the EntropySource is
passed an Entropy_Accumulator. This handles the RLE encoding that xor_into_buf
used to do. It also contains a cached I/O buffer so entropy sources do not
individually need to allocate memory for that with each poll. When data
is added to the accumulator, the source specifies an estimate of the number
of bits of entropy per byte, as a double. This is tracked in the accumulator.
Once the estimated entropy hits a target (set by the constructor), the
accumulator's member function predicate polling_goal_achieved flips to true.
This signals to the PRNG that it can stop performing polling on sources,
also polls that take a long time periodically check this flag and return
immediately.
The Win32 and BeOS entropy sources have been updated, but blindly; testing
is needed.
The test_es example program has been modified: now it polls twice and outputs
the XOR of the two collected results. That helps show if the output is consistent
across polls (not a good thing). I have noticed on the Unix entropy source,
occasionally there are many 0x00 bytes in the output, which is not optimal.
This also needs to be investigated.
The RLE is not actually RLE anymore. It works well for non-random inputs
(ASCII text, etc), but I noticed that when /dev/random output was fed into
it, the output buffer would end up being RR01RR01RR01 where RR is a random
byte and 00 is the byte count.
The buffer sizing also needs to be examined carefully. It might be useful
to choose a prime number for the size to XOR stuff into, to help ensure an
even distribution of entropy across the entire buffer space. Or: feed it
all into a hash function?
This change should (perhaps with further modifications) help WRT the
concerns Zack W raised about the RNG on the monotone-dev list.

It turned out many files were including base.h merely to get other
includes (like types.h, secmem.h, and exceptn.h). Those have been changed
to directly include the files containing the declarations that code needs.

the underlying PRNG's reseed was a success.

them modules now. In any case there is no distinction so info.txt seems
better.
