(There is also aother version launched the same day. Perhaps this is the
one to go, because there is some API and ABI changes in 4.0:

{{{
* Noteworthy changes in release 4.0 (released 2014-06-26) [stable]
- optimized asn1_der_decoding_startEnd(). It no longer requires the
additional decoding step.
- asn1_read_value() understands the ?CURRENT keyword, which can be used
to indicate the current element of a sequence, when the provided node
is a sequence element.
- Several optimizations in DER decoding of structures with sequences
containing many elements.
- asn1_der_decoding2() is introduced and allows flags to be passed on
the decoding process. Currently only ASN1_DECODE_FLAG_ALLOW_PADDING is
defined and that allows decoding DER structures that contain arbitrary
data past their end. Contributed by Karel Slany.
- API and ABI changes since last version:
ASN1_DECODE_FLAG_ALLOW_PADDING: New definition
asn1_dup_node: New function
asn1_der_decoding2: New function
asn1_der_decoding_element: It is now an alias to asn1_der_decoding
