------------------------------+--------------------------------
 We currently build a tor-checkkey binary in src/tools.  It extracts and
 prints the modulus from a PEM-encoded RSA public key.

 Long ago, we added it on order to help detect and clean up the effects of
 the Debian OpenSSL RNG bug (CVE-2008-0166).  But that's nearly a decade
 ago; maybe we can let this code get removed.
