AFAICT system-config-lvm on FC6 is unable to do practically
anything.  But the problem is not that utility but an underlying
version of lvm2 at least parts of which misbehave.

After recent rawhide updates to lvm2-2.02.12-2 suddenly
system-config-lvm became able to initialize and create new logical
volumes, resise filesystems and so on.  I played with that a bit on
some scratch disk space. Mind you, system-config-lvm is the same
version which originally showed up sometime in August and only lvm2
is different.

is likely a good place to add your observations and remarks.

I did not try but replacing lvm2-2.02.12-2 in FC6 by a new
version from rawhide should be straightforward without doing
any other changes.
