I always use the form /dev/mapper/vg-lv, though. The /dev/vg/lv form sometimes isn't available in early boot. I think it depends of udev, and has certainly broken for me in the past.

Would /dev/vg/lv be as reliable as /dev/mapper/vg-lv or is the latter preferable?
This is no longer the case. Actually, if something with udev fails, neither /dev/vg/lv nor /dev/mapper/vg-lv will exist, but only /dev/dm-N with some arbitrary number N. While LVM and udev still don't like each other, these problems have mostly been fixed now.
