D-H, buffered socket and ssh wrapper modules in pure python

I've placed a Diffie-Helman module in pure python at
ftp://autoinst.acs.uci.edu/pub/python/dh .

Comments on how to improve it are desired.  I am NOT a cryptographer,
so it may be worse than useless.

Also included is a buffered socket implementation to prevent
uncommon-but-possible short reads from being a problem in your code.
Comments on this too are desired.

A coworker has written an ssh wrapper module.  Is anyone interested in
seeing it?  I could dig up permission from him to release it I think,
and I'd personally kind of like seeing it get some peer review.
