Do you have verbose output from the failing pvcreate with '-vvvv'?
(or debug-log-to-file output)

The patch was produced under severe time pressure before I went away 
and I know it doesn't deal with one case properly - maybe the case 
you hit.  It addresses a symptom not the cause: the code is not meant 
to be trying to write to read-only file descriptors in the first place,
and this happens here because of a shortcoming in way it does its locking. 
I'll deal with this maybe later this week or else in the New Year.
