I just remembered: There is a way you can do testing until the
library udebs will be available. 

If you put cryptsetup-udeb in the localudebs/ directory, the d-i
build process will copy all required libraries into the initrd. Note
that this will not work when cryptsetup-udeb will be loaded at d-i
runtime (ie. over the network or from CDROM), but only when it is
included in the initrd at build time. Anyways, this should make it
easier to test cryptsetup-udeb until then.

cheers,
