On a semi-related tangent, does this mean that utilising the three
symmetric ciphers available in TrueCrypt (AES, Serpent and Twofish) is
a bad idea or do they play well together?

Also, if you had to pick one of those three, which would you choose
(for general purposes rather than a specific threat model and ignoring
the possible speed differences between AES and Serpent)?
