Right, that's one of the things we need to "fix" in mount.ecryptfs.
If you pass the sig in on the command line, and that sig is already in
your keyring, you should *not* be prompted for the passphrase. This
confuses matters.

When you're prompted for the passphrase, you *must* put in the output
of the ecryptfs-unwrap-passphrase command. Otherwise, matters are
confused.
