    And the brief summary is: there's only one ciphersuite left that's
    good, and unfortunately its only available in TLS 1.2:

    TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256

A lot of people don't like GCM either ;)

Yes, GCM does have implementation sensitivities particularly around the
IV generation. That being said, the algorithm is better than most and
the implementation sensitivity obvious (don't ever reuse an IV).

I think the difficulty of getting a fast constant time implementation on
platforms without AES-NI type hardware support are more of a concern.

Is this any different from plain old AES-CBC?
