As one would expect -- and as you surmised -- that doesn't work.

No, the panic only occurs when running xfs_db (or, in fact, xfs_logprint,
which makes me suspect other xfs command may exhibit the same problem).
The panic only occurs when the raid5 volume is involved.

Possibly.  I'm using a patch Scott (Smyth) sent me, which I presume
incorporates this work -- the patch fixed the problem with the raid5 resync
process wedging when the volume was mounted.
