There is new great PECL package.
http://pecl.php.net/package/crypto
I would like to see it as default for crypt related feature.

Anyway, we need default rundom_bytes() function in ext/standard. This is
mandatory for secure apps, but we have no default function. This should be
resolved.

Anyway, mcrypt_create_iv() is not optimum, yet. Here is possible
improvement.

https://github.com/yohgaki/php-src/compare/PHP-5.6-mcrypt_create_iv

It still requires random source and it does not support windows well,
though.
I'm about to adding new function which solves all of them like session
module.
