Status in eCryptfs - Enterprise Cryptographic Filesystem: Fix Released
Status in “ecryptfs-utils” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released
Status in “ecryptfs-utils” source package in Jaunty: Confirmed

Bug description:
This bug is similar to Bug #365596.

A commenter there had an excellent suggestion.  eCryptfs should, perhaps, add an entry to /etc/fstab that looks like this:

/home /.home-backup none ro,bind

This would ensure that encrypted copies of all files are available at all times to backup utilities at /.home-backup.
