I attach pgcrypto patch which fix two problems on system without strong
crypto support (e.g. default Solaris 10 installation):
1) postgres crashes when AES cipher uses long key
2) Blowfish silently cut longer keys. It could bring problem when
crypted data are transfered from one server to another with strong keys
support.
This patch was discussed there:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2007-07/msg00762.php
This patch is applicable also on 8.2, 8.1 (and maybe older) version of
postgresql.
