does anyone recognize this as a bug within lvm?
agreed.
there are long standing bugs in the dev scanning code of lvm1, did you try using the devfs name (even if you don't mount devfs you can create the device file manually) you could also add some more info instead of requoting yourself eg: contents of the damned /proc/partitions which version of lvm tools are you running output of lvmdiskscan lvmdiskscan -d pvcreate -d and so on.

P.S. please don't post to the list, put it somewhere accessible.
