Yeah, these are totally different topics. PKCS #1 is about RSA
encryption, decryption, verification and padding. PBKDF2 is specified in
PKCS #5 v2.0.

PKCS #1 support should be implemented on top of OpenSSL or NaCl. I'm
planing to use OpenSSL as primary implementation and additional code as
fallback implementation of PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA-1, PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA-256 and
PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA-512.
