Yes, it is caused by this change and it is a bug (and should be fixed
in devel tree already), so next release will work again here.

(You still need to be root for LUKS format...)

Thanks for report!

(You can directly use http://code.google.com/p/cryptsetup/issues/list next time
if you want track specific problem and the fix.)
