Yes it seems like a worthwhile thing to include, there seems to be a bit
of redundant code in there and a bit of extra functionality might be
useful (for example to be able to create SPKAC files from a private
key).
I'll hack it up a bit and add it when I have the time.
Thanks for the contribution.
Re installation: I seem to recall you just edit the Makefile and progs.h
is rebuilt automatically. Though it might need a bit of prodding under
non Unix builds.
