+1. This was late to be documented, but its available at
(https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.0.2/apps/enc.html):

    "The enc program does not support authenticated
    encryption modes like CCM and GCM. The utility
    does not store or retrieve the authentication tag."

Maybe the encrypt program should throw an error rather than producing
incorrect results without a warning.
