Marc, thank you so much for pointing to loop-aes-utils as the culprit. I can confirm that after removing the loop-aes-utils package from my Maverick AMD64 system, and re-installing the latest libfuse and fuse-utils updates, I can mount sshfs and TrueCrypt volumes.

@Søren Weber:
losetup -a
will show you the loop devices set up on your system. For example:

# losetup -a
/dev/loop5: [000e]:14986 (/dev/md1) offset=4096 encryption=AES128 multi-key-v3
/dev/loop7: [000e]:14954 (/dev/md0) offset=4096 encryption=AES128 multi-key-v3

shows 2 loop-aes devices in use. You can tell they are are loop-aes devices because of the "encryption=AES128" string. In case you see such devices, you need to keep loop-aes-utils. As a counter-example, on my system using 1 TrueCrypt volume and no loop-aes devices:

# losetup -a
/dev/loop0: [0902]:20 (/mnt/sdc1/encrypted.tc)
