I have another moment.

I was thinking of combining the loops so you take 8 bytes, convert to  
xL and xH, encrypt/decrypt, convert to 8 bytes and accumulate all in  
one cycle.  There is no array.  (This ignores the end of the string; I  
left that for you.)

That assumes ECB mode, but you can easily adapt it to other modes.
