Yes, it's guaranteed to be an instance of "xcbc" which was created by xcbc_create(), so it will have 'cra_blocksize == 16'. So until someone actually tests and enables support in the "xcbc" template for other block sizes (if the XCBC specification allows them), it would also be fine to just '#define XCBC_BLOCK_SIZE 16' at the top of the file and use that everywhere that references the block size.
