LVM development has tended to be rather unpredictable, and there have been
some 'interesting' versions of LVM which kernel people have screamed about.
LVM 1.0 has also been 1 week from release for several weeks now. So we have
stayed put on a working version of LVM and we will revisit the issue when
1.0 finally comes out. Attempting to keep track of the LVM development and
mainline kernel development at the same time is more than I want to attempt
right now. Heinz has also stated on a couple of occasions that he will not
take patches for making LVM work with XFS until post 1.0 - and this is the
direction the patches (if any) will have to flow.
