It's (one of) the underlying protocols for SSL. As for the lib, it's a math and
encryption library, and AFAIK written as a gcc port of the SSH lib.
Unfortunately, it isn't even open source, let alone GPL or LGPL.

Also, at least in the archive I have (2.0.8 tar.gz format), there are no docs,
except those that are in the header files.
