You should be using VeraCrypt (https://veracrypt.codeplex.com/) rather than TrueCrypt. The authors of TrueCrypt even said to stop using it when they stopped maintaining it.

Yeah, I should. But Arch doesn't provide packages for it yet and there's no realistic attack vector against my usage of TrueCrypt, so meh. It's good enough until Arch starts shipping packages.

You can use Linux's own cryptsetup to mount TrueCrypt volumes. No TrueCrypt needed. There's documentation on the ArchWiki. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/TrueCrypt

Sure, but at that point, why is maintaining my own package better than just using Truecrypt?
