Can't mount with Truecrypt after ABI change

Hi everyone,

I just updated everything after the GCC ABI change and I'm having trouble with Truecrypt.
When I try to mount a volume, I get one of two errors:

"Invalid characters encountered"

"fuse: bad mount point <some random unicode placeholder symbols>"

This is apparently a known issue with Veracrypt, based on Truecrypt:
http://veracrypt.codeplex.com/workitem/173

There, it is posited that the problem stems from wxWidgets and/or Fuse.
A certainly related issue is that Veracrypt, in the AUR, doesn't build at the moment. Luckily the binary from the Veracrypt website works, so I'm using that at the moment.

Just wanted to point this out if it's not already known.

I reported a bug:

Downgrade to 1:7.1a-2 solved it for me
