Perhaps I just got really lucky when testing beta7 and didn't end up with
any unaligned lvs.  Regardless, we should be able to make new snapshots of
those volumes now.  I'm less worried about supporting existing unaligned
snapshots.

So, I'm trying some things, I'll either post patches or beg for help 
later ;-)
