So I recreated in 8-BETA1 and I could mount and see files. When I tried again on 30/12/2008 stable and todays, on PII machine (i386):

So your problem is that:

a) you created a gstripe array on a recent STABLE (two weeks ago) and it 
was fine
b) you tried to use it with an old STABLE (30.12.2008.) and it didn't work
c) you tried to use it with today's STABLE and it didn't work
d) it works with 8-BETA1

?

The only thing that comes to my mind is that during your tests you have 
changed the stripe size, making the file system data unusable (and 
unmountable).

Are you saying you won't use 8-BETA1 because you fear there may be 
problems with it? If so, you shouldn't worry so much - 8-CURRENT is very 
stable.
