[linux-lvm] Inconsistent naming...?

I created a snapshot volume "with the name corresponding
the volume name-date-time:
ll /dev/Home+Space/
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 8 Jul 10 18:16 Home-2011.07.07-00.00.00 -> ../dm-12
lrwxrwxrwx 1 7 Jul 10 18:16 Home-2011.07.10-09.42.07 -> ../dm-5
Ok and they look that way in 'lvs', but when I mount
them, 'df'' (or mount) shows:
/dev/mapper/Home+Space-Home--2011.07.07--00.00.00

897M 160K 897M 1%
/home/snapdir/@GMT-2011.07.07-00.00.00
/dev/mapper/Home+Space-Home--2011.07.10--09.42.07
1.0T 468G 557G 46%
/home/snapdir/@GMT-2011.07.10-09.42.07
Notice the device name. notice how the single dashes are now displayed
as two dashes?!?!
What up with that? Seems like a bug somewhere... -- though it doesn't
**seem** to affect how it work....but it is disturbing...I thought my
volume names had mutated somehow...
