I tried building ecryptfs-tools from oneiric with optimisation turned off, and that doesn't cause a hang either. I've also tried the -proposed package and that also appears to work fine.

Storing the result of fgetc in a char and then comparing to EOF is clearly wrong (which is why fgetc returns an int in the first place). So although I cannot reproduce the original symptom, this change does not appear to cause a regression but does fix a bug for somebody, so I think it would be fine to go into -updates unless there is a policy that prevents this.
