Well, our ctr(aes) must be completely deterministic as it is
used as the base for CCM and GCM.  In fact, if it weren't so
then you can't use it for anything since two implementations
may produces different outputs.

So if you could resend some vectors that test multiple blocks
then I'll happily add them.
