Okay, let me apologize first for my last post sounding too accusing.
Of course nearly all Linux developers are unpaid volunteers, and I can't expect that anybody spends his leisure time on reproducing my problems.
I just had the impression that Hewus asked me carelessly to put a lot of effort in reproducing the defect without any justified reason that the problem was fixed in the meantime.
Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Is a swap partition on the RAID a bad thing to do?
Following the instructions on some web page, I used the whole space on my hard disks (except for a small boot partition) for the RAID-LVM, and created a swap partition in the LVM with commands like the following:
lvcreate -n swaplv -L 500M volg1
mkswap /dev/volg1/swaplv
swapon /dev/volg1/swaplv
