Hello, 

I've been debugging openssh_36.nasl and have a question about a snippit
of code.  

Why is:

 if ( ! defined_func("bn_random") ) exit(0);

and related checks for bn_random in so many nasl's, what is this
mysterious bn_random function, and why would or would not it be defined?

I've grep'd through the nasls, inc, and nes in the plugin's directory
but have not found a function definition yet.

Thanks for any help!

Sincerely,
Scott
