This is the only package I intend on maintaining in Fedora at the
moment.

Perhaps.

I would like to take the path of least resistance to get eCryptfs
support into Fedora, but I would also like the ability to push changes
into the package without having to bother a middleman. The userspace
utilities change about as rapidly as the kernel module, which is
probably going to be changing on every 2.6.x kernel release for at
least the next year.

This required some changes to the build, but I believe I have this
remedied in the most recent version of the package.
