you're correct, sorry for that. the upload fixes the bug you described
for cryptroot installations, as there the cryptroot initramfs script is
responsible for starting the dm-crypt mapping, and it already uses
askpass. for normal dm-crypt mappings, started by the cryptdisks
initscript the bugreport is still valid. it is planed to use askpass in
cryptdisks initscipt as well though.
we hope to make that change in time for lenny.

greetings
 jonas
