I have been unable to reproduce this error. It looks like cryptsetup crashed while trying to create the LUKS mapping for the PV. Does this still happen for you with current rawhide trees?
I am seeing this with today's rawhide (20080318). My setup is slightly different in that I'm doing encryption of an LVM PV which is on top of an mdraid 0. My dump looks similar and I'll attach it. Can be split into it's own bug if this is something different than the original posters, but the errors look generic enough.

Hrm, I can't see this anymore, and I think we fixed some stuff on the backend around this. Closing as rawhide for now, will re-open if seen again.
