[imp] Re: IMP Performance in mailbox.php

[Johny]

Mate,

I used arwins RPMs yesterday with zero luck, but today using the Horde 
ones it was pretty straightforward to upgrade...

However, zero improvement with mcrypt installed. test.php reports it as 
installed, and a bit of logging in Secret.php shows that this statement 
fails, causing it to simply fall back to the standard encryption in Horde;


$td = @mcrypt_module_open(MCRYPT_GOST, '', MCRYPT_MODE_ECB, '');
             if ($td) { <--- FALSE

I got both libmcrypt and php-mcrypt from the horde website, and just 
checked that there is both a gost.so and a ecb.so in /usr/lib/libmcrypt.

Suggestions ? I'm happy to debug this one, but the PHP doccos say 
nothing useful about this function failing, so I'm at a bit of a loss as 
to what to do with it...

:)Johny
