The problem here is, that nobody with the required skills steps in and
fixes the bugs.
The people who maintained the code in the past seem to be rather busy
with other things, and you should acknowledge that they did their job
voluntarily.

So the real problem is, that cryptsetup becomes more and more popular,
while no new developers seem to be interested in participating.

I have to admit that this applies to me as well. I maintain cryptsetup
in debian, but i've neither skills nor time to do upstream tasks on a
regular basis.

You could at least file bugreports against cryptsetup in your favourite
distribution. That documents the issue, and maybe the maintainer who is
responsible for the package cares enough to find a fix.
