Tim Golden added the comment:

Unfortunately it looks as though this wasn't the correct way to close a Crypto 
handle. It isn't a conventional handle and we be using CryptReleaseContext to 
"close" it. cf 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa382041%28v=vs.85%29.aspx
 for example.

At present it's giving a mismatched-pointer warning when building on Windows 
(because it's actually a pointer under the covers and not a simple numerical 
HANDLE).

Simple patch attached
