Thanks, OK I got the rest of the way through the tangled mess. The question is there someone out there that can skip trace through the subroutines that can put together a tight code set on how this works? One command walk through to start from the beginning to the end which is the key feedback.

I have it that the elliptic multiply is not standard. So I have been skip tracing though the code. It starts with ec_key.c, with EC_KEY_generate_key. This grabs the group or or the particular curves prime field size. It then uses this as the range for bn_rand_range. This is in bn_rand.c. I
