HMAC consists of two passes of SHA1, and includes padding in such a way that
means that pre-image attacks where the attack text is longer than the

So, I am not falling overmyself to deprecate HMAC-SHA1.
I'm happy to leave things as they are until a revision to 8247 is done.
Note that MUST- means that it is already on it's "way down"
