I'm not an expert in crypto internals, so I don't know. I'll send version 3 of this patch and I'd like to ask you or Herbert to fix it.

Yes - I've created crypto_requires_inherited for this purpose.

Likewise in most of the other files.
I was told that the code should be 80-characters wide.

I don't know what do you mean.
