The "problem" I encounter is difficult to narrow, but I can tell you now that, in my case, the question is asked for buffers which do not contain any tagged entry with "crypt" (neither the string "crypt" as word or subword of that buffer): I simply call C-c C-x C-j to jump to the current clocking entry, and the question "org-decrypt: auto-save-mode may cause leakage. Disable it for current buffer? (y or n)" pops up -- while the current buffer has nothing special, as said above. This is reproducible for me, with Git version of this morning.
