Hi,

 Ditto here but I do see different USE flags:
I don't think that the nls USE flag will have something to do with your Problem

 I have a few fairly important things in that encrypted raw source
 directory, any suggestions how I might retrieve them?
I'm sorry, but for me it looks like the encrypted filesystem is totally broken, 
no chance to recover it so far since secure is secure.

I doubt nls has anything to do with this.

Does the encrypted directory look OK? Have you run fsck on the underlying
filesystem? Is the .encfs5 file present and looking vaguely correct. A
recent timestamp on the .encfs5 file would indicate corruption (I always
keep a backup of this file).

Go back to a previous version of OpenSSL.
There's an incompatibility with newer versions. See the encfs-users ML.
(And after backing up your data, return to the current version.)

For all other users, the moral is written on the encfs web site:

Warning

Nobody should need to warn you that you should keep backups of
important data. Storing data in an encrypted filesystem makes it even
more important that you keep backups because it complicates the
possibility of data recovery!
