Im trying to work with the encrypt(3) routines, and Im
having a slight problem: mode 0 encrypts just fine, but mode 1
doesnt seem to return the clear.

	Since crypt(1) doesnt use the encrypt(3) routines, and
crypt(3), notably in its use for passwords, doesnt use the
decrypting facility, I thought the error possibly might not
be on my part. Ive written a little test program (which I will
send to askers) and run it on 2.8, 4.1a and v7 systems always
with the same result.

	Anybody know about this? I dont want to try to "decrypt"
those routines!
