Do you know if Truecrypt would work with Retrospect?
I haven't used Retrospect in this century, so I can't say for sure, but I would be surprised if the two didn't get along. Retrospect can write to any volume you can mount, so the TrueCrypt volume should be no problem. Time Machine has problems because it uses special HFS+ directory features to streamline its incremental backups. (This, by the way, is how you get Time Machine to work with TrueCrypt; make Time Machine think the TrueCrypt volume is HFS+.)
What about EFI Open Firmware passwords?
This should also be no problem because it has nothing to do with the drives. By the way, putting on my pedant hat, I note that Open Firmware is on PowerPC machines and EFI is on Intel machines.
