I'm having a pretty bizarre problem with my kernel crypto configuration. I need support for a bog standard LUKS (aes / cbc-essiv:sha256) / cryptsetup installation, but even after I enable virtually everything in the crypto section of the kernel configs, cbc fails to load. All the relevant modules are exist (dm-mod, dm-crypt, crypto_blkcipher, crypto_algapi, crypto_hash, aes_generic, sha256_generic), but even after modprobing / insmoding everything, /proc/crypto shows that aes and sha is there, but not cbc.
The problem has been reproduced (using my kernel config) by Jonas Meurer, the Debian cryptsetup maintainer, so it's not just me ;). We've tried numerous different kernel versions in the .30 / .31 range.

Does this mean that something else somewhere in the kernel needs to be configured but isn't, and the necessary dependency isn't properly declared?
My config is at: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=45;filename=config-2.6.31-rc6-lizzie-00042-gb2add73;att=1;bug=541835
