I would not know, I don't own another (older) VIA CPU.

Linux x86_64 (Ubuntu 12.04)

I noticed the test fails only with GCRY_CIPHER_MODE_CTR.

After starting to understand what is this mode, I noticed it also failed
on 32 bits and just gave up on it, hoping that someone (the padlock code
author?) could explain it.

Do you happen to have a VIA CPU on which libgcrypt was fully tested around?

If it fails with a recent version of libgcrypt too I could bisect the bug.
