loop-AES changes since previous release:
- Makefile updated to use CFLAGS_NOSTDINC with new kbuild.
- swapon now adds -v1 option to mkswap execv()'s on 2.5 kernels.
- Cosmetic fixups to some error case printk's in the loop driver.
- Added /dev/hd[efgh] and /dev/sd[efgh] support to build-initrd.sh
- Made build-initrd.sh work with GnuPG-key encrypted root partition.
- "swapoff -a" of encrypted partitions now writes some collected random
  entropy to the partitions to be used on next "swapon -a"
- loop.c-2.5.original updated with fixes from 2.5.30
- Removed workaround for 2.5 kernel block device module locking bug.

P.S.  Previous version, loop-AES-v1.6e, is still mostly OK. Upgrading to
      this version is waste of your time if you haven't experienced problems
      with build-initrd.sh special cases or software suspend.
