About item 4:
To work around the problems i've had, I encoded my data with:
my $encrypted = 'RandomIV'.$crypt->iv.$crypt->encrypt("some data");
Since the iv is not generated in the constructor but at the moment we
start encrypting, the iv was undef/'', and my test failed.
I've retested the library with:
my $encrypted = $crypt->encrypt("some data");
$encrypted = 'RandomIV'.$crypt->iv.$encrypted;
This worked without any problems, so scrap bugreport item 4 :)
