[Robert Millan]

I just installed an LVM test system to debug this.

It was; the problem had to do with the variable not being exported.

I'm proposing the attached patch for commit (ChangeLog entry in patch header).

This fixes the two known problems regarding load of lvm/raid modules.  I found
other two issues with lvm in runtime, which I just committed since the fix was
one-liner.

The remaining known problem is detecting partmap; I'll probably find time to do
that one too, but I'll need to know how can one obtain a machine-parseable
list of physical devices that conform an LVM virtual device (and the same for
software RAID).
