As some of you may have noticed, new example 4 of loop-AES README file was
fucked up. One important step was missing from example 4 instructions, and
if those instructions were followed literally, /tmp partition most likely
ended up being unwritable by non-root users.

Below is the fix in patch form, and URL of full corrected README file:

 Encryption keys and plaintext data on above type mount vanish on unmount or
 power off. Using journaled file system in such case does not make much
