Sadly this is not true enough, as has been illustrated recently by 
some people asking about corrupted large encrypted files generated 
on windows with (if I remember correctly) the "-e file" option some 
time before. I think it was possible to restore the data by doing 
some manual bit fideling in the encrypted binary... 
(But I do not remember.)
