Subject: SSE bug still there in Jumbo-5-RC6++

Even after applying all incremental patches posted to the wiki, there 
are some problems left in Jumbo-5-RC6:

1. Raw-MD4 segfaults for me on linux-x86-sse2:
* Using linux-x86-mmx I saw no problem.
* It segfaults when running "--test"
* It does NOT segfault when running eg. "--test --fo:raw-MD4"
* Test suit does NOT segfault and all 1320 is found

This led me to believe the problem was in the format running right 
before raw-MD4 on a --test run, namely salted-sha1. I did find a bug in 
that format (fix included in patch just posted) but that was not the 
cause of this.

2. NSLDAP has a problem on linux-x86-sse2 and linux-x86-mmx:
Benchmarking: Netscape LDAP SHA MMX [SHA-1]... FAILED (get_hash[0](1))

I have no time to investigate further right now.
