This is hapening to me too. I am in Feisty and the pertinent versions
are the following:

linux-image-2.6.20-16-386
lvm-common            1.5.20ubuntu12
lvm2                          2.02.06-2ubuntu9
libdevmapper1.02    1.02.08-1ubuntu10

Exactly the same issue. When running pvcreate /dev/sda4 one time it's OK, the 
next one is not OK.
vgcreate works with /dev/mapper/sda4 or /dev/evms/sda4, but not with /dev/sda4.

Let me know if you need more info / tests

pvcreate /dev/sda3 fails, /dev/evms/sda3 succeeds
