I have no report.bug for you, but I can tell you what happens:
Every LVM operation creates a file /etc/lvmconf/[volume group].conf
which is, on my system ~140kB. In successive operations, these files
are not deleted but moved to [volume group].conf.1.old, [volume
group].conf.2.old etc. These files are never removed.
That is, after adding 5 physical partitions
to a volume group, I end up with ~700kB of such files in /etc/lvmconf,
and that eats up the space on the root device.

Thus, my problems had nothing to do with the Journaling file systems,
just with LVM setup.

Another weirdness of diskdrake LVM management: After removing a single
physical volume from a volume group, the whole group is deleted, and
all other physical volumes removed as well.
