if you are running 4.43 of lsof (the first version to support +L ) then that would appear to not be the problem for you, I am not sure what would be causing it then, other then some braindamaged program opening something in /usr with write permission, this would violate FHS since /usr is supposed to be completly read-only mountable without disturbing anything.
I just tested the +L and +L1 and it worked ok for me, I am running 4.43 of lsof, so its probably not lsof lying to you at least :)
