That's a CRYPT_ERROR_INTERNAL, which means cryptlib has detected an internal
consistency-check failure, typically because the compiler has done something
to the code that it shouldn't have.  Tracking those down really requires
access to the system on which it occurs to locate the problem.

Yes, they're both currently hosted at the alternative site.

They're all false positives.  The ones that are left are things where
different compilers warn different ways, so if you fix them for one compiler
than you trigger different warnings from another compiler.
