It depends on what you want to do. I have found OpenSSL a very useful
basis for my OpenPGP implementation. Implementing ElGamal as specified
in OpenPGP was a matter of minutes (bignum support, parameter
generation and padding functions already being available). Extending
the EVP library probably is more work.
