   The first prototype is when linked against libmcrypt 2.2.x, the
   second when linked against libmcrypt 2.4.x or 2.5.x.

   <function>mcrypt_get_key_size</function> is used to get the size
   of a key of the specified <parameter>cipher</parameter> (in
   combination with an encryption mode).
  </para>
  <para>
   This example shows how to use this function when linked against libmcrypt
   2.4.x and 2.5.x. It is more useful to use the
   <function>mcrypt_enc_get_key_size</function> function as this uses the
   resource returned by <function>mcrypt_module_open</function>.
