Now I have went through not only ripemd160, but all the supported hash
functions. All are of the Merkle-Damgård type (except md2, which uses
more stupid padding). I've tried to reduce the code duplication (in the
source code) using some helper macros, and generally improve consistency
a bit.

ripemd160.c got reduced to 44 non-comment lines, with all the complexity
in ripemd160-compress.c, as it should.

Ah, and one other question: Do you want me to add your name to the
copyright headers of the various ripemd160.c (I don't know how much
editing you had to do when porting it from libgcrypt).

Documentation for the ripemd160 algorithm remains to do.

Regards,
/Niels
