Hey Michael. Sorry for the delay here. ;( 

I did some testing here on my x86_64 box, running the latest rawhide. 

ecryptfs-utils-9-1
kernel-2.6.20-1.2949.fc7.x86_64

Trying: 
cd /tmp
mkdir secret
mount -t ecryptfs /secret /secret

Unable to get the version number of the kernel
module. Please make sure that you have the eCryptfs
kernel module loaded, you have sysfs mounted, and
the sysfs mount point is in /etc/mtab. This is
necessary so that the mount helper knows which 
kernel options are supported.

Enabling passphrase-mode only for now.

Passphrase: 
Verify Passphrase: 
Cipher
1) Twofish
2) CAST5
3) CAST6
4) Blowfish
5) AES-128
6) AES-192
7) AES-256
8) Triple-DES
Selection [AES-128]: 7
Attempting to mount with the following options:
  ecryptfs_cipher=aes
  ecryptfs_key_bytes=32
  ecryptfs_sig=dba5ed7952a1184d

So, the module wasn't loaded and it didn't autoload it. 
I did a manual 'modprobe ecryptfs' and then tried again. 
It seems to work, but I don't see anything with df, and looking in 
dmesg I get: 

mount.ecryptfs[4322] general protection rip:3226c5e4b9 rsp:7fffa5c67a80 error:0
mount.ecryptfs[4568] general protection rip:3226c5e4b9 rsp:7fff15962c10 error:0

I'll try some more testing with ppc and i386 soon. 
If you could spin a new -2 release addressing the issues in the last comment, we
can try and get this moved forward. 

Thanks.
