Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.2 [xx XXX xxxx]
*) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
So far those who have to target multiple plaforms would compromise
and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.

*) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
(other platforms pending).
