No problem, it happends to all of us. There still is a bug here 
though...the error messages from libdevmapper are obtuse to say the 
least.

libdevmapper explained that /dev/md0 is in use with the message:
"Command failed: device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argument"

That is a bug in my book.

I'll reassign this bug to libdevmapper (and retitle it accordingly).

I'll also CC all people that I've bugged earlier so that they know that 
this issue is no more.

That's ok, you just owe me a beer.
