Description Milan Broz 2006-11-16 14:20:07 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #209848 +++
RHEL 4.5 clone

The dm ioctl interface is supposed to return the table to userspace in a
specific format (identical to one particular format that can be used to load
tables).  Some userspace code relies on this (e.g. comparing/parsing tables). 
The dm mirror target breaks this by adding an incorrect trailing space.
