I notice a health warning at http://wiki.freepascal.org/DCPcrypt 
relating to non-standard key sizes. Graeme, I see you're down as the 
maintainer: does Rijndael have a self-test and (Chris) are you using it?

I see that I've extended the Tiger2 self-test to make sure UpdateStr() 
concatenates properly, but I've not recorded why I thought that was 
advisable. That procedure does look sensitive to whether its parameter 
is ASCII or Unicode, and something like a £ character in the input could 
mess things up.
