+/* (From RFC1521 and draft-ietf-dnssec-secext-03.txt)
+   The following encoding technique is taken from RFC 1521 by Borenstein
+   and Freed.  It is reproduced here in a slightly edited form for
+   convenience.
+
+   A 65-character subset of US-ASCII is used, enabling 6 bits to be
+   represented per printable character. (The extra 65th character, "=",
+   is used to signify a special processing function.)
+
+   The encoding process represents 24-bit groups of input bits as output
+   strings of 4 encoded characters. Proceeding from left to right, a
+   24-bit input group is formed by concatenating 3 8-bit input groups.
+   These 24 bits are then treated as 4 concatenated 6-bit groups, each
+   of which is translated into a single digit in the base64 alphabet.
+
+   Each 6-bit group is used as an index into an array of 64 printable
+   characters. The character referenced by the index is placed in the
+   output string.

+
+   Special processing is performed if fewer than 24 bits are available
+   at the end of the data being encoded.  A full encoding quantum is
+   always completed at the end of a quantity.  When fewer than 24 input
+   bits are available in an input group, zero bits are added (on the
+   right) to form an integral number of 6-bit groups.  Padding at the
+   end of the data is performed using the '=' character.
+
+   Since all base64 input is an integral number of octets, only the
+         -------------------------------------------------
+   following cases can arise:
+
+       (1) the final quantum of encoding input is an integral
+           multiple of 24 bits; here, the final unit of encoded
+	   output will be an integral multiple of 4 characters
+	   with no "=" padding,
+       (2) the final quantum of encoding input is exactly 8 bits;
+           here, the final unit of encoded output will be two
+	   characters followed by two "=" padding characters, or
+       (3) the final quantum of encoding input is exactly 16 bits;
+           here, the final unit of encoded output will be three
+	   characters followed by one "=" padding character.
