True, but this "config mismatch warning" stuff should actually
be checked before GCM is negotiated, so there *should* not be a
mismatch if both sides have it in their config.

We should not log annoying warnings unless there is something
actionable for the users ("stop using BF-CBC"), so this is something
we should look into fixing.
