no PKCS#5 padding in DES_cbc_encrypt/DES_cbc_decrypt

[Alicia da Conceicao]

For some reason, the DES routines for CBC (Cipher Block Chaining)
mode:

        DES_cbc_encrypt
        DES_cbc_decrypt

do not appear to add the required PKCS#5 padding.  Is their another
routine I should be using that works with the DES_key_schedule type?

Thanks in advance,
Alicia.

PKCS#5 padding is only added/removed at the EVP level.
