James,
I've got a fix in my devel code base for this and I'm waiting for
user confirmation in a couple of cases where the bug hit in order
to do another release.
BTW: do I have your metadata yet
(dmraid -rD;tar jcvf James-Olson-raid0.tar.bz2 *.{dat,size,offset})
in order to confirm it fixes your case as well ?
FYI: the reason why this flaw doesn't hit in many (most?) cases is,
that the size the metadata reports *is* a multiple of the stride
(called chunk in dm) size.
Regards,
Heinz
