/* From Daniel Bleichenbacher (via coderpunks):
*
* There is still a theoretical attack possible with 8 extra bits.
* But, the attack would need about 2^66 signatures 2^66 memory and
* 2^66 time (if I remember that correctly). Compare that to DSA,
* where the attack requires 2^22 signatures 2^40 memory and 2^64
* time. And of course, the numbers above are not a real threat for
* PGP. Using 16 extra bits (i.e. generating a 176 bit random number
* and reducing it modulo q) will defeat even this theoretical
* attack.
*
* More generally log_2(q)/8 extra bits are enough to defeat my
* attack. NIST also plans to update the standard.
*/
/* Add a few bits extra, to decrease the bias from the final modulo
* operation. NIST FIPS 186-3 specifies 64 extra bits, for use with
* DSA. */
