Bug description:  mcrypt doesn't do OFB mode correctly

Description:
------------
Correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't an ECB decryption of an OFB
encrypted string of null bytes produce a string whose first eight bytes
(assuming that that's the block size) are equal to the IV?  Certainly
that's the impression I get from wikipedia.org's discussion of OFB.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_cipher_modes_of_operation#Output_feedback_.28OFB.29



Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$td = mcrypt_module_open(MCRYPT_DES, '', MCRYPT_MODE_OFB, '');
mcrypt_generic_init($td, 'aaaaaaaa', 'bbbbbbbb');
$ciphertext = mcrypt_generic($td, "\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0");

$td = mcrypt_module_open(MCRYPT_DES, '', MCRYPT_MODE_ECB, '');
mcrypt_generic_init($td, 'aaaaaaaa', "\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0");
echo urlencode(mdecrypt_generic($td, $ciphertext));
?>

Expected result:
----------------
bbbbbbbb

Actual result:
--------------
