<From the LVM2.2.02.24 source>
The following lines in report.c seems to show that (c) will become (C) if the 
lv is locked:

	repstr[2] = _alloc_policy_char(lv->alloc);

        	if (lv->status & LOCKED)
                	repstr[2] = toupper(repstr[2]);

That is also what the man page claims. However the start of report.c show 
this: 

 switch (alloc) {
        case ALLOC_CONTIGUOUS:
                return 'c';
        case ALLOC_CLING:
                return 'C';
        case ALLOC_NORMAL:
                return 'n';
        case ALLOC_ANYWHERE:
                return 'a';
        default:
                return 'i';
        }

Isn't that a conflict, or am I reading this wrong? BTW I am not a professional 
programmer nor do I play one on TV.
