New versions of mcrypt, libmcrypt and mhash are available. Also, I've heard that libmcrypt 2.5.5 is buggy and this might cause problems for people using mcrypt support on their websites through PHP with unexpected behavior and/or crashes. Here are the new versions: libmcrypt-2.5.7 mcrypt-2.6.4 mhash-0.8.18 Also, it should be safe to use posix threads now in libmcrypt when used with PHP. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
mhash merged in stable. libmcrypt/mcrypt in unstable for more testing. see changelogs for more details. I've also cleaned out some of the gunk in them from old bugs.
