Fixes CVE-2016-6316: Bug in the mixing functions of Libgcrypt's random number
generator. An attacker who obtains 4640 bits from the RNG can trivially
predict the next 160 bits of output.

Committed, thanks.

The announcement also talks about a new gnupg release. Will you also
send a bump to 1.4.21?
