Hi, thanks. We haven't paid much attention to SRP ourselves (and it's
not being built atm), but no reason not to make it better.

That said, I think the DigestUpdate and similar checks are unnecessary
and complicate the code more than they help. Those functions really
can't fail.

However, I think maybe the free() and BN_clear_free() fixes are still
applicable?
