The API has totaly changed, so the module had to be rewrited after all (As I
see). Question is, if the mcrypt extension as it exists now, must be extended
with the new API (almost all of the functions have to be changed as I see), or
create a new extension for it. Preferable the first option of course.
ANother posiblility is to retain all functions as they are now (for mcrypt
2.2), and add new mcrypt2_* functions for the new API (mcrypt 2.4).
Did you already have some design in mind, or didn't you?
