Actually, I sort of had second thoughts about what I wrote after I wrote it.
 I believe that 1.95 is the pre-release of the grub2 project.  The version
of grub supplied with F7 is 0.9X (forgot what the X is) and looking at the
changelogs there is no mention of support being added for LVM.

Needless to say, that has left me in a confused state.  Then again, it could
be the drugs after my accident....or my normal state.  :-)
