I think you've got a simple typo in you code -- in SQLFORM.factory, you have
a ')' at the end of the Field line, so your 'requires' ends up being a
SQLFORM.factory argument instead of a Field argument. It should be:
form=SQLFORM.factory(
Field('card_number','string',comment='with dashes',
requires=CRYPT(auth.settings.hmac_key)))
When I try the above, CRYPT works fine for me.
