Yes, you're right.. Also, each new snapshot that appears overwrites
the symlink to a new /dev/dm-X target, considering the upstream where
we have nodes in /dev and symlinks in /dev/mapper. Hmm..

(these rules were used long before -- I've just transfered them
from another source)

Thanks for the notice! I'll try to deal with this somehow, if
possible.
