It doesn't really hang, it's just that cryptsetup waits for me to enter
the passphrase without showing the prompt. If I enter the passphrase and
press Enter, booting continues normally.
What I can see when booting:
... kernel messages ...
INIT: version 2.86 booting
Using shell-style concurrent boot in runlevel S.
Starting hotplug events dispatcher: udevd.
Synthesizing the initial hotplug events...done.
Waiting for /dev to be fully populated...
... kernel messages ...
done.
Starting boot logger: bootlogdSetting the system clock.
_
At the last line, the cursor is blinking and cryptsetup is waiting for
me to enter the passphrase.

Yes, I didn't expect it to change anything but disabling bootlogd in
/etc/default/bootlogd makes the passphrase promopt visible again.

I can reproduce the problem on this system as well by enabling bootlogd.
