Note the danger of using this program, since you might lock

yourself out of your system without any means of entering the root
18
file system password. This is, however, very unlikely considering
19
the fallback to getpass(3).

State that this command is not meant to be invoked directly, but
30
is run as a plugin from mandos-client(8) and only run in the

initrd environment, not the real system.

Note that it does *not* currently use cryptsource or crypttarget.
