not at all.
I am trying to connect to an IPSEC gateway that requires single DES
That is not allowed with openswan or libreswan. It takes a modern quad code minutes upto hours to crack that. It's not a VPN. don't give yourself a false sense of security!
but I find that when I specify ike=des, the pluto process crashes and drops core.
This was fixed in: commit 2d0a4be2968457d58954b79b6496927cb7f157d0 Author: Paul Wouters <[email protected]> Date: Thu May 15 15:44:01 2014 -0400 pluto: don't die when the only loaded proposal is completely invalid It will be part of libreswan-3.9. I'll see if I can put this into openswan-2.6.32-32 for RHEL-6.6 as well. But it is not your real problem. Your real problem is trying to use 1DES. The only valid answer is: don't.
