There is one change in the prime generator where the callback is
called at other places using the new modes:

  #define GCRY_PRIME_CHECK_AT_GOT_PRIME   1
  #define GCRY_PRIME_CHECK_AT_MAYBE_PRIME 2

if you probably check for mode (which used to be 0 in previous
versions), it should not make any difference.
