  Changes between 1.1.1c and 1.1.1d [xx XXX xxxx]
 
+  *) Changed DH parameters to generate the order q subgroup instead of 2q.
+     Previously generated DH parameters are still accepted by DH_check
+     but DH_generate_key works around that by clearing bit 0 of the
+     private key for those. This avoids leaking bit 0 of the private key.
+     [Bernd Edlinger]
+
   *) Revert the DEVRANDOM_WAIT feature for Linux systems
 
      The DEVRANDOM_WAIT feature added a select() call to wait for the
