PROBLEM with non-LUKS mapping was this: usplash keeps running with NO prompt, appearing to be a boot hang when the older cryptsetup code from hardy (source package=1.0.5 ,deb version(s)=2:1.0.5). I have not tested 1.0.6 with a non-LUKS mapping, but the "askpass" binary is used in both LUKS and non-LUKS mappings with the version of cryptdisks.functions included in version 2:1.0.6 cryptsetup. Presumably this fixed the "no passphrase entry" bug I saw when testing the unaltered 2:1.0.5 code(my original changes did not touch that section) on a non-LUKS mapping.

Therefore, my first patch would RE-INTRODUCE the "no passphrase entry" bug on a non-LUKS mapping and should NOT be used to fix the package-only to patch installations using LUKS, where I used it for months.

My second patch does NOT reintroduce this bug-and someone should see if "askpass" is echoing the passphrase to the console on non-LUKS mappings with 2:1.0.6, as the code in the provided cryptdisks.functions is similar. If so, my second patch closes that hole as well.
