thanks for your offer.
I wil happily list my setup BUT let me tell at first that the latest
sys-fs/lvm2-2.02.100 seems to have fixed that semaphore-issue.
After booting my desktop with it I quickly tested:
# lvcreate -n test -L1G VG03
Logical volume "test" created
#
fine!
Three times ok ...
But I still face the fact that the LVs weren't activated at boot time.
Manual "vgchange -ay" needed ... or that self-written lvm.service
enabled as mentioned somewhat earlier.
Here my setup:

This pretty much says it all, right?
2 hdds sda and sdb
1 ssd sdc
root-fs and /home on ssd ...
sda and sdb build two RAID-arrays (rather ugly names and partitions ...
grown over time):
