I think that Crypt::Memfrob is best.  We don't need to support gratuitous
compatibility with legacy languages ;) ... we're aiming at *Perl*
programmers here after all, and I think if I were looking for encryption 
or bogo-encryption routines I'd look in Crypt:: 

For example, I'd look for a rot13 module in Crypt:: before anywhere
else.
