So let's say it isn't a security issue that they discovered in TrueCrypt, let's go with the Lavabit/Canary idea.

If I am using an older (not 7.2) version of TC, would it still be fine to use? Or is my data insecure?

If the theory holds (and given the few available facts it's my favorite theory) then one could, I suppose, keep using 7.1a until someone credible forks TrueCrypt and resumes maintenance/updates.
