This bug will only effect users of root on lvm2 users

Thats what I thought but it doesn't.  lvdisplay which is used to get the
list of drives allways seems to get the symbolic link(using
sys-fs/lvm2-2.01.09).  mount allways seems to get the actual device
(using sys-apps/util-linux-2.12r).

>Anyway, I'd certainly recommend filing the bug.
I added it to the end of this bug which seemed relivant.

I also updated the patch so it should work with /usr folders on lvm2 and
error message will show link no actual device name
