Thanks for the thoughts Quentin.  Would you mind sharing your current 
versions (of clvm, corosync, openais, and pacemaker) and VM technology?

I agree about hand-backporting - i'd be more inclined to run unstable 
than to hand-backport.

Any ideas on whether LVs in the same VG can be used on different hosts 
simultaneously with cLVM?
