dmraid -b and serial numbers

  Hi Heinz,
I noticed that using dmraid -b the lba sector capacities match but the serial numbers of the drives do not match other linux drive diagnostic tools.  I am using promise controller with pdc metadata, 2 drive raid0.  Could you have a look at it?

hdparm v6.3 using the identify command (-i and -I) 
and also smartctl version 5.36 shows drive serial numbers:
/dev/hde lba sectors = 60058656, serial number = E18A3V2E
/dev/hdg lba sectors = 60036480, serial number = YKEYKLP4806
dmraid --version
dmraid version:         1.0.0.rc11-pre1 (2006.04.11)
dmraid library version: 1.0.0.rc11-pre1 (2006.04.11)
device-mapper version:  4.6.0
# dmraid -b
/dev/hde:     60058656 total, "1EA8V3E2"
/dev/hdg:     60036480 total, "YEKKYPL8460"
When using dmraid -b, the serial numbers do not match, the serial number string lengths are correct but the digits
are not in the correct order. Drive hde seems to be a simple transposition
of the first and second digits etc, but hdg does not.
