cff23429d6 I noticed that the contrib Makefiles were reorganized.
Converted pgcrypto one too.

* Changed default randomness source to libc random()
  That way pgcrypto does not have any external dependencies
  and should work everywhere.
* Re-enabled pgcrypto build in contrib/makefile
* contrib/README update - there is more stuff than
  only 'hash functions'
* Noted the libc random fact in README.pgcrypto

ab56022864 Big thanks to Solar Designer who pointed out a bug in bcrypt
salt generation code.  He also urged using better random source
and making possible to choose using bcrypt and xdes rounds more
easily.  So, here's patch:

* For all salt generation, use Solar Designer's own code.  This
  is mostly due fact that his code is more fit for get_random_bytes()
  style interface.
* New function: gen_salt(type, rounds).  This lets specify iteration
  count for algorithm.
* random.c: px_get_random_bytes() function.
  Supported randomness soure: /dev/urandom, OpenSSL PRNG, libc random()
  Default: /dev/urandom.
* Draft description of C API for pgcrypto functions.

New files: API, crypt-gensalt.c, random.c

264f8f2b6c Install dynamically loadable modules into a private subdirectory
under libdir, for a cleaner separation in the installation layout
and compatibility with binary packaging standards.  Point backend's
default search location there.  The contrib modules are also
installed in the said location, giving them the benefit of the
default search path as well.  No changes in user interface
nevertheless.

2518e27334 /contrib/pgcrypto:
* remove support for encode() as it is in main tree now
* remove krb5.c
* new 'PX library' architecture
* remove BSD license from my code to let the general
  PostgreSQL one to apply
* md5, sha1: ANSIfy, use const where appropriate
* various other formatting and clarity changes
* hmac()
* UN*X-like crypt() - system or internal crypt
* Internal crypt: DES, Extended DES, MD5, Blowfish
  crypt-des.c, crypt-md5.c from FreeBSD
  crypt-blowfish.c from Solar Designer
* gen_salt() for crypt() -  Blowfish, MD5, DES, Extended DES
* encrypt(), decrypt(), encrypt_iv(), decrypt_iv()
* Cipher support in mhash.c, openssl.c
* internal: Blowfish, Rijndael-128 ciphers
* blf.[ch], rijndael.[ch] from OpenBSD
* there will be generated file rijndael-tbl.inc.

558fae16e3 The attached patch enables the contrib subtree to build cleanly under
Cygwin with the possible exception of mSQL-interface.  Since I don't
have mSQL installed, I skipped this tool.

Except for dealing with a missing getopt.h (oid2name) and HUGE (seg),
the bulk of the patch uses the standard PostgreSQL approach to deal with
Windows DLL issues.

I tested the build aspect of this patch under Cygwin and Linux without
any ill affects.  Note that I did not actually attempt to test the code
for functionality.

The procedure to apply the patch is as follows:

    $ # save the attachment as /tmp/contrib.patch
    $ # change directory to the top of the PostgreSQL source tree
    $ patch -p0 </tmp/contrib.patch

60ea34b046 Changes:
* reverse the change #include <> -> "" in krb.c.
  It _must not_ include files in "."
* Makefile update.  Inconsistent var usage and SHLIB was
  not set.

Now it should work with all external libs.

cb5427ee47 I would like to do a interface change in pgcrypto. (Good
timing, I know :))  At the moment the digest() function returns
hexadecimal coded hash, but I want it to return pure binary.  I
have also included functions encode() and decode() which support
'base64' and 'hex' encodings, so if anyone needs digest() in hex
he can do encode(digest(...), 'hex').

Main reason for it is "to do one thing and do it well" :)

Another reason is if someone needs really lot of digesting, in
the end he wants to store the binary not the hexadecimal result.
It is really silly to convert it to hex then back to binary
again.  As I said if someone needs hex he can get it.

Well, and the real reason that I am doing encrypt()/decrypt()
functions and _they_ return binary.  For testing I like to see
it in hex occasionally, but it is really wrong to let them
return hex.  Only now it caught my eye that hex-coding in
digest() is wrong.  When doing digest() I thought about 'common
case' but hacking with psql is probably _not_ the common case :)
