Comment (by bdubbs):

 Noteworthy changes in version 1.8.4 (2018-10-26)

  * Bug fixes:
    - Fix infinite loop due to applications using fork the wrong
      way.
    - Fix possible leak of a few bits of secret primes to pageable
      memory.
    - Fix possible hang in the RNG (1.8.3 only).
    - Several minor fixes.

  * Performance:
    - On Linux always make use of getrandom if possible and then use
      its /dev/urandom behaviour.
