Oops, my mistake.. you are correct as far as I know.

What I should have said was "the non-exportable RC4 algorithm"
because (also AFAIK) it's not exportable so we can't check it into
freefall.

We *can* check it in to the international repository but I don't know
if anyone has done that yet, or if so what the header file looks like.
