3This directory is for the EXACT same use as src/contrib, except it
4holds crypto sources.  In other words, this holds raw sources obtained
5from various third party vendors, with FreeBSD patches applied.  No
6compilation is done from this directory, it is all done from the
7src/secure directory.  The separation between src/contrib and src/crypto
8is the result of an old USA law, which made these sources export
9controlled, so they had to be kept separate.
