In /var/log/messages:

Jun 17 13:24:46 localhost mount.ecryptfs: Failed to write to the mount table


Got that when running ecryptfs.mount for the first time on this machine:

  [...]
  Not adding sig to user sig cache file; continuing with mount.
  Error mounting eCryptfs: [-5] Input/output error
  Check your system logs; visit <http://launchpad.net/ecryptfs>

The mount was successful, however, according to "mount" output.
