Ok, I just found out that 'cryptsetup status $dst' gives us the
information we need. the following works but could be implemented
better:

loopdev="/dev/"$(cryptsetup status "$dst" | grep "device" | sed -e 
's/.*device.*\///g' | grep "^loop" || true)

if ! rm_lo_setup; then
        device_msg "$dst" "detaching loopback failed"
        continue
fi

I added it to svn, but i'm happy to replace the loopdev=... line with
some better idea ;-)

greetings,
 jonas
