    * Fix symlink command for cross compiling with CMake (found by Andre
      Heinecke)
    * Fix DER output of gen_key app (found by Gergely Budai)
+   * Very small packets were incorrectly rejected when truncated HMAC was in
+     use with some ciphersuites and versions (RC4 in all versions, CBC with
+     versions < TLS 1.1).
