Warn against using the MD4 hash function
* lisp/md4.el (md4): Warn against using it, since its security is
non-existent and it has been declared obsolete. It should probably
only be used by our NTLM support. Point users to secure-hash instead.

* lisp/comint.el (comint-input-ring-file-name): Avoid having this
variable being killed on mode restart while the other ring

allocate a copy of the format FMTCPY; instead, use a small fixed-size
array FMTSTAR, and use '*' in that array to represent width and
precision, passing them as separate int arguments. Use eassume to
pacify GCC in switch statements.
