I just split my VG in two; the obelix_crypt volume that's not available initially is no longer part of the big VG, which means that the VG is fully available and requires no --partial. The system is back to booting normally. I did a casual diff between 2:1.3.0-3.1 and 2:1.4.1-2 and found nothing obviously relevant to LVM partial stuff. I suppose the change occurred in the way the device dependencies are calculated, around lines 150-160 of cryptroot-hook.
