Ok, this is the most important information. You run qemu-img WHILE THE IMAGE IS IN USE. This has never been supported and never worked. The answer to your question is trivial: do not do this. For more info, see snapshot_blkdev monitor command. I'm retitling this bugreport appropriately and tagging it with "wontfix", so it will be visible. ALso, I'm not sure why you tagged it with "lfs".
