Source is the same. AFAIK Michel Bouissou make the Mandrake's swap encryption 
patch and the knoppix-MiB.

There is a "losetup -o 4096 -e AES256 ..." in the swap script in the 
knoppix-MiB.
I have seen in the unified util-linux patch such a feature for swap directly 
implemented. This feature is not in util-linux 2.12 ?
