Paul, I know, ecryptfs mount should not end in infinite loop, but don't
take this as workaround. The verbosity=0 is needed here. Infinite loop
is fixed, but without verbosity=0 mount helper will ask you (or cron)
for missing values. If you (cron) enter invalid values it'll ask again
(5 times at most - this is new). After that it'll fail with 'invalid
value' error.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils

I have a large (>30 GB) ecryptfs partition that I do backups onto. When I mount 
it, mount.ecryptfs starts eating my memory at an alarming rate. I usually end 
up doing killall -9 mount.ecryptfs when this happens, and the partition seems 
to have mounted fine.

This is Ubuntu 9.04 with ecryptfs-utils 73-0ubuntu6.
