[linux-lvm] lvcreate segfaults

[Robert_Macaulay at Dell.com]

I'm having the same problem as well. gdb on the core file shows

 lv_create (vg=0xb, lv=0xbffffab4,
    lv_name=0xbffffae4
"uuy?\003uy?(uy?Guy?iuy?suy?6?y?U?y?o?y?\204?y?\233?y?|?y?E?y?O?y???y?i?y?u?
y?\nyy?\eyy?)yy?4yy??yy?Eyy?Uyy?") at lv_create_remove.c:42
42      inline int lv_create ( vg_t *vg, lv_t *lv, char *lv_name) {

I haven't changed the inlines yet since it's a production system, and it
didn't seem to help for John
