Anaconda, kickstart and btrfs

Does anyone know how to get Anaconda to install F17 onto an existing encrypted btrfs RAID?

I've run into this tardiness: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common...da-btrfs-crash, and am learning how to use Kickstart instead (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Kickstart#btrfs). The problem is that Anaconda refuses to believe that the volumes on the last three lines exist:

Code:
part /boot --fstype=ext4 --noformat --onpart=sda2

# Striped /.
part btrfs.01 --noformat --onpart=sda3
part btrfs.02 --noformat --onpart=sdb1

# Striped encrypted /var.
part btrfs.03 --noformat --encrypted --onpart=sda5
part btrfs.04 --noformat --encrypted --onpart=sdb3

# Mirrorred encrypted /home.
part btrfs.05 --noformat --encrypted --onpart=sda6
part btrfs.06 --noformat --encrypted --onpart=sdb4

# Mount-points.  Volumes don't exist apparently.
btrfs / --noformat btrfs.01 btrfs.02
btrfs /var --noformat btrfs.03 btrfs.04
btrfs /home --noformat btrfs.05 btrfs.06
Can anyone see the problem?

The actual error message I get from Anaconda is "specified nonexistant BTRFS volume in btrfs command" (with an extra space between "volume" and "in", as if something is missing), refering to the first "btrfs ..." line.
