Actually, sleeping on this, I realized that we really want to export the Salsa20 core primitive (this was what I actually needed), and that is the primitive that should be implemented in assembler.

Now that this is in, did you make any use of it yet? I don't quite remember what your application was.

For some reason I had missed that this went in, thanks for commiting this. How about the attached final cleanup patch, to export the Salsa20 core? I think that is consistent with the approach you outlined.

My application was scrypt, and I'll update my implementation to use the latest Nettle interfaces soon. I'll submit the scrypt part later on...
