That is becuase Libgcrypt offically supports Camellia longer than
OpenPGP and to not mess up things Libgcrypt uses algorithm numbers > 255
if they don't map directly to the nu7mbers used by OpenPGP.

Yeah, I implemented that a year ago with the idea to do the mapping
while parsing and building OpenPGP messages.  As you noticed, it is not
complete yet.
