And also TLS_RSA_WITH_HC_128_CBC_MD5.
No ciphersuite identifiers have been defined for these ciphersuites, so
interoperability isn't guaranteed.
They choosed {0x00, 0xFB}, {0x00, 0xFC} and {0x00, 0xFD} as identifiers,
without following IANA rules (RFC5246 part 12, RFC2434).

The CBC means absolutely nothing and shouldn't be here.

It could be nice to have another stream cipher appart from RC4.
