I don't think this is your error. I'm seeing th same output on my systems and I don't like it. Thanks for pointing this out before I wrote some script to parse the INCORRECT output of lvdisplay -c.

FYI: I checked the redhat bugzilla and couldn't find a mention of this, so I entered this as bug #127858.
