Thanks Evgeniy for your work! Even though, it's great what's inside, I'm afraid it will be judged by the form of its presentation. A patch should be something integral, testable on its own. I think it's not necessary to package it that fine grained, as it becomes very hard to apply with a regular mail reader (Saving/Exporting 50 mails is really a bit of a work). So, the form is a bit suboptimal. Don't hesitate to put all "acrypto*" and "arch*" patches in one-large acrypto patch set, and an other for "bd*". I'd be glad to say something different, but I think acrypto has not been considered by the maintainers to be merged soon, so patch splitting doesn't make sense anyway at the moment.
