BTW, I can easily reproduce. I was near to go into it yesterday but got
interrupted by other issues (like the merging of the 0.9.1-beta1 kernel driver
and extraction of the strictly necessary fixes from the 0.9.1-beta1 userspace
against 0.9).

In the meantime here is the diff between my current kernel lvm driver and
0.9.1-beta1 applied on top of 2.4.1-pre3, Heinz could you merge the below
incremental fixes into your tree before merging with Linus? Thanks!
