there are two situations which with this patch fails now:

if the key-file is empty (but regular) file, it should not fail here, I mean:
	touch empty
	cryptsetup luksOpen ... --key-file=empty

You probably mean to fix only this situation (it should fail if piped input is closed
and not try empty passphrase)
	$(sleep 1) | cryptsetup luksOpen ...

I committed modified patch (see svn), please verify that it fixes reported problem.

Thanks,
Milan
