Weird, the patch that is causing you the problem will be:
http://people.sistina.com/~thornber/patches/2.5-stable/2.5.50/2.5.50-dm-2/00005.patch <http://people.sistina.com/%7Ethornber/patches/2.5-stable/2.5.50/2.5.50-dm-2/00005.patch>
Though it still looks sane to me. Can you send me the lvm2 log from this vgchange along with the size in sectors of hdb7 please ?

Sure - here is more information about my system - the PVs as below Disk /dev/hdb: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 7297 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes

There ought to be 4 LVs and minors; when the system is right I get
lvm lvscan

Sure - here is more information about my system
Can you mail me (rather than the list) the complete lvm2 log after trying your vgchange -ay. Look at /etc/lvm/lvm.conf to see where it is.

Can you mail me (rather than the list) the complete lvm2 log after trying your vgchange -ay.
e.g. run 'vgchange -ay -vvv' and send the full output;
or edit the log section config file to capture the debug output (see doc/example.conf):
level = 7
overwrite = 1
file = "/tmp/lvmlog"
