I didn't get this warning, because I have version 1.02 of this library,
but I still ended up with a broken system. My root partition was fine
(Thank $DEITY I tried this on my laptop first) so I could untar the
package from the previous version (the ebuild had been removed from
portage). I got lots of errors about UUIDs with the new version.

There's now a further update to lvm2 and device-mapper in portage, so I'll
see what happens this time.
