GnuPG uses a generic CBC implementation which is common for all encryption algorithms. And furthermore CBC is not used in OpenPGP so it would only be relevant for LibGcrypt.

Bloating the code with more and more ciphers does not seem to be a good idea and Serpent is not defined in OpenPGP. Werner -- Werner Koch Omnis enim res, quae dando non deficit, dum habetur g10 Code GmbH et non datur, nondum habetur, quomodo habenda est. Privacy Solutions -- Augustinus
