While playing around I found the following three new points:
- - Now the length of the subvolume name does not matter. So even the
ones with short names are read-only.
- - It also happens to a fresh newly created btrfs filesystem.
- - If I take a snapshot of an "old" (= writeable) subvolume this is
writeable.

I will now reboot into 2.6.37.4, check there, and then report back.

Thanks,
