Good to know, congrats for the debugging!

Now:

1. The proper solution still seems to patch systemd-cryptsetup so that
   this workaround isn't needed; may you please send your patch
   upstream? If not, just tell us and I guess someone here will do
   it :)

2. If a fix doesn't make it into systemd in Jessie, then I guess we'll
   want to document this workaround in NEWS.Debian, and make sure the
   release notes point there.

IMO, let's not spend time on #2 right now, and instead focus on #1.

Cheers,
