There is already if (skey != uskey) couple of lines above (line 334).
Should not it be better to move zeromem(skey, sizeof(*skey)) there?

so you mean like this?
cipher_descriptor[cipher].done(skey);
#ifdef LTC_CLEAN_STACK
zeromem(skey, sizeof(*skey));
#endif
would be fine for me
we shouldn't clean user-supplied variables
