international crypto patch as non-kernel-patch...

[Herbert Valerio Riedel <hvr@hvrlab.org>]

hello!

I've played around a bit, and I came to the conclusion, that we actually
don't need it anymore to have the international crypto patch as an
kernel-patch, if only modules are used...

It can be build completely externally (access to the kernel includes is
needed for compilation though...)... and inserted into a running
unpatched 2.4.x kernel... sounds great, doesn't it?

I'll try package it for general use...

...any comments so far?

there's only one issue I'm fighting with... that damned broken IV
calculation... :-/
