Summary: AES MODE_CBC require multiple of 16 bytes to work?

Initial Comment:
It seems to me that the CBC algorithm is implemented a 
little odd...

When using the CBC mode it should be possible to pass 
data with lengths not a multiple of 16?

The following code produces the error:

from Crypto.Cipher import AES

a = AES.new('abcdefghabcdefgh', AES.MODE_CBC)
a.encrypt('This is a test    ')
