In mcrypt_compat 2.0 phpseclib_mcrypt_generic_deinit was modified to so that $td was passed by reference. This was done so that reflection could be used to change the visibility of a variable that phpseclib 3.0 made private (in phpseclib 2.0 all class variables were implicitly public). Because of that you can't do call_user_func($prefix . 'mcrypt_generic_deinit', $td); (doing so will give you a "Parameter 1 to phpseclib_mcrypt_generic_deinit() expected to be a reference, value given" error) - you have to do ($prefix . 'mcrypt_generic_deinit')($td);. Only problem with that is that that only works on PHP 7.0+, hence why PHP 5.6 is being dropped.
