Just to be sure that I get it right that time:
Creating an USB flash drive with persistence works with liveusb-creator-3.12.0, but does not work with livecd-tools-13.4.5. Is this corrected?
I was confused that you called liveusb-creator-3.12.0 a "workaround". I would take liveusb-creator first to create a live USB flash drive,

Have you tried livecd-tools-13.4.6?
rpm -ihv http://www.livecd.ethz.ch/download/RPMS/6x/x86_64/python-imgcreate-13.4.6-15.sl6.x86_64.rpm
rpm -ihv http://www.livecd.ethz.ch/download/RPMS/6x/x86_64/livecd-tools-13.4.6-15.sl6.x86_64.rpm

Cheers,
