So, I happen to stuble across bdes recently and think we should remove
it..

I'm fine w/ making it a port so that people who need it can use it...

Especially considering:
     The DES cipher should no longer be considered secure.  Please consider
     using a more modern alternative.

Though sadly, that comment was added almost 15 years after DES was
brute forced by DEEPCrack.
