In 8.8.2 it diverts you away from the simple solution, i.e. "cd /usr/ports/security/librsaintl && make install", to appendix A of all places. Als the description in 8.8.4 is appropriately cryptic <g>. What does "but international users should use this version because the RSA implementation is faster" actually say? Especially the useage of 'the' is unclear. If it said 'this' it would be clear, then it says that non-US should this, i.e. the int. version, because it is faster and more flexible. Instead it tells you to use 'the RSA' implementation. Which would be the RSA reference implementation. If using 'this' twice in a sentence then there's always 'its' as a good runner up. Then again, I'm probably one of but a few who gets thrown of the scent by these semantic, ehm, niceties <g>.
