It should not be too hard to have build a lightweight 'libbignum' that
is extracted from the openssl sources and make that available in the base
system. It would not be hard to convert the lib*mp consumers to use the
libbignum (libbn, -lbn ?) and then we can get rid of it.
telnet* should never have used libmp in the first place, it should have
used libcrypto/bignum. chkey/newkey/keyserv are using libmp for
diffie-helmann key exchange. (just large integer multiplication). It
should be really easy to convert those three.
