Bug Description

Under Ubuntu, for HFS+ filesystems :

The 'blkid' command finds in general BOTH the 'Partition label' and the 'Filesystem label'.
For example :
$ sudo blkid -s LABEL -s TYPE -s PARTLABEL /dev/sda11
/dev/sda11: LABEL="Etienne" TYPE="hfsplus" PARTLABEL="Etienne"

But when the HFS+ filesystem is nearly full :
The 'blkid' command correctly finds the partition label, but NOT the HFS+ filesystem label.
For example :
$ sudo blkid -s LABEL -s TYPE -s PARTLABEL /dev/sda14
/dev/sda14: TYPE="hfsplus" PARTLABEL="Camille"

I am absolutely certain that '/dev/sda14' has a filesystem label, because 'fsck.hfsplus' finds it, and 'diskutil' of 'Mac OS 10.5' also finds it :

$ sudo fsck.hfsplus /dev/sda14
** /dev/sda14
** Checking HFS Plus volume.
** Checking Extents Overflow file.
** Checking Catalog file.
** Checking multi-linked files.
** Checking Catalog hierarchy.
** Checking Extended Attributes file.
** Checking volume bitmap.
** Checking volume information.
** The volume Camille appears to be OK.

$ sudo diskutil info /dev/disk0s14
