+  o Minor bugfixes
+    - Correctly detect failure to allocate an OpenSSL BIO.  Fixes bug 2378;
+      found by "cypherpunks".   This bug was introduced before the
+      first Tor release, in svn commit r110.
+
   o Minor code simplifications and refactorings
     - Always treat failure to allocate an RSA key as an unrecoverable
       allocation error.
