Binary package hint: cryptsetup

I enter the password for an encrypted device at boottime after being
prompted to. Afterwards I see the boot output because a module compile
failed. Then I notice that the password I entered is still visible on
the screen.

I expect the password to be hidden!

Ubuntu 8.10

crypttab:
home /dev/sda5 none luks,retry=1,cipher=aes-lrw-benbi:sha256
