To me, deprecating RC4-HMAC-EXP but not RC4-HMAC implies that we regard
non-export strength RC4-HMAC as secure.  I think this is unfortunate.

I'd prefer that we deprecated both RC4-HMAC and RC4-HMAC-EXP.  Second to
that, that we say nothing at all about RFC 4757 and let readers pass
their own judgement on it.
