Backed out changeset b6c206049d8a

is therefore backed out in order to allow NVM functionality to be
merged into graphics-phase-3 by transplanting individual commits.

The modules described in this chapter implement various algorithms of a
cryptographic nature. They are available at the discretion of the installation.
Here's an overview:

Hardcore cypherpunks will probably find the cryptographic modules written by
A.M. Kuchling of further interest; the package contains modules for various
encryption algorithms, most notably AES. These modules are not distributed with
Python but available separately. See the URL
http://www.amk.ca/python/code/crypto.html for more information.
