> - Update from version 3.7.3 to 3.8.1
> - Update of rootfile
> - Changelog
>    3.8.1 release
> 	This is a bugfix release, fixing a few portability issues
> 	reported for Nettle-3.8.
> 	Bug fixes:
> 	* Avoid non-posix m4 argument references in the chacha
> 	  implementation for arm64, powerpc64 and s390x. Reported by
> 	  Christian Weisgerber, fix contributed by Mamone Tarsha.
> 	* Use explicit .machine pseudo-ops where needed in s390x
> 	  assembly files. Bug report by Andreas K. Huettel, fix
> 	  contributed by Mamone Tarsha.
> 	Optimizations:
> 	* Implemented runtime detection of cpu features for OpenBSD on
> 	  arm64. Contributed by Christian Weisgerber.
> 	The new version is intended to be fully source and binary
> 	compatible with Nettle-3.6. The shared library names are
> 	libnettle.so.8.6 and libhogweed.so.6.6, with sonames
> 	libnettle.so.8 and libhogweed.so.6.
>    3.8 release
> 	This release includes a couple of new features, and many
> 	performance improvements. It adds assembly code for two more
> 	architectures: ARM64 and S390x.
> 	The new version is intended to be fully source and binary
> 	compatible with Nettle-3.6. The shared library names are
> 	libnettle.so.8.5 and libhogweed.so.6.5, with sonames
> 	libnettle.so.8 and libhogweed.so.6.
> 	New features:
> 	* AES keywrap (RFC 3394), contributed by Nicolas Mora.
> 	* SM3 hash function, contributed by Tianjia Zhang.
> 	* New functions cbc_aes128_encrypt, cbc_aes192_encrypt,
> 	  cbc_aes256_encrypt.
> 	  On processors where AES is fast enough, e.g., x86_64 with
> 	  aesni instructions, the overhead of using Nettle's general
> 	  cbc_encrypt can be significant. The new functions can be
> 	  implemented in assembly, to do multiple blocks with reduced
> 	  per-block overhead.
> 	  Note that there's no corresponding new decrypt functions,
> 	  since the general cbc_decrypt doesn't suffer from the same
> 	  performance problem.
> 	Bug fixes:
> 	* Fix fat builds for x86_64 windows, these appear to never
>           have worked.
> 	Optimizations:
> 	* New ARM64 implementation of AES, GCM, Chacha, SHA1 and
> 	  SHA256, for processors supporting crypto extensions. Great
> 	  speedups, and fat builds are supported. Contributed by
> 	  Mamone Tarsha.
> 	* New s390x implementation of AES, GCM, Chacha, memxor, SHA1,
> 	  SHA256, SHA512 and SHA3. Great speedups, and fat builds are
> 	  supported. Contributed by Mamone Tarsha.
> 	* New PPC64 assembly for ecc modulo/redc operations,
> 	  contributed by Amitay Isaacs, Martin Schwenke and Alastair
> 	  D´Silva.
> 	* The x86_64 AES implementation using aesni instructions has
> 	  been reorganized with one separate function per key size,
> 	  each interleaving the processing of two blocks at a time
> 	  (when the caller processes multiple blocks with each call).
> 	  This gives a modest performance improvement on some
> 	  processors.
> 	* Rewritten and faster x86_64 poly1305 assembly.
> 	Known issues:
> 	* Nettle's testsuite doesn't work out-of-the-box on recent
> 	  MacOS, due to /bin/sh discarding the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
> 	  environment variable. Nettle's test scripts handle this in
> 	  some cases, but currently fails the test cases that are
> 	  themselves written as /bin/sh scripts. As a workaround, use
> 	  make check EMULATOR='env DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$(TEST_SHLIB_DIR)'
> 	Miscellaneous:
> 	* Updated manual to current makeinfo conventions, with no
> 	  explicit node pointers. Generate pdf version with texi2pdf,
> 	  to get working hyper links.
> 	* Added square root functions for NIST ecc curves, as a
> 	  preparation for supporting compact point representation.
> 	* Reworked internal GCM/ghash interfaces, simplifying assembly
> 	  implementations. Deleted unused GCM C implementation
> 	  variants with less than 8-bit lookup table.
