Found it! That Debian directory is would have saved me hours when I was first experimenting with getting encrypted resume,(from encrypted swap), home, /tmp,and /var/tmp with unencrypted binaries(for performance).

I can now see if I can find a way to make askpass never echo the passphrase back to console, assuming I can find the bug in the source code.
