I'm not sure how many people are using evms with ocfs2 but the latest release 
of evms is hard-coded to check for ocfs2-tools version 1.1 I've patched it 
locally to check for version 1.1 and higher if anyone is interested. I'm also 
working on an init script and ebuild for gentoo, if anyone wants a copy.
