The library rejected an RNG input of all-bits-zero, which led to the
key 2^{254} (for Curve25519) having a 31/32 chance of being generated
compared to other keys. This had no practical impact because the
probability of non-compliance was 2^{-256}, but needlessly
complicated the code.
The exception was added in 98e28a74e3 to
avoid the case where b - 1 wraps because b is 0. Instead, change the
comparison code to avoid calculating b - 1.
