Bug description:  mdecrypt_generic() fails all but 'ecb' with mcrypt_module_close()

Description:
------------
I noticed all the examples in the online documentation 

do not actually close out the mcrypt module, they simply 

deinit. This is not an accurate simulation of a real-

world use, where an encrypted string may be stored and 

later retreived long after the module has been closed. 



I encountered this potential bug when running the loop I 

posted on the mcrypt main page. It seems that in all 

modes except ecb, mcrypt fails to decrypt encrypted 

strings after the module has been closed. At first I 

thought it was just my system or my libmcrypt, but I 

have tried this on multiple machines with the same 

results.

Reproduce code:
---------------
http://www.peakepro.com/workbench/mcrypt

Expected result:
----------------
The same results as in the source code posted in 

mcrypt_module_open() i.e. the original string.

Actual result:
--------------
Garbled output that varies with each new call.
