+I guess the issue is we don't want to export these functions as ppart of\r
+the API, but we do want to use them in the CLI. I _thought_ that\r
+util/crypto.c only (or mainly) used _notmuch_crypto_t, which is defined\r
+in crypto.h. Given the various constraints, I think that is probably\r
+OK. Some kind of purism about naming things in util/ might suggest they\r
+not be called notmuch, but that is probably silly (although I admit I\r
+had that thought).\r
