Interesting patch, but I realize now grub2 isn't the one at fault. The
problem is in an innate flaw in the 0.90 metadata. Even mdadm can get
confused. This happens if I try to setup the RAID with its UUID. I did
find a potential conversion method by telling mdadm to zero out the old
superblock and reconstruct it using metadata version 1.0. This doesn't
have the ambiguity problem. Thanks for the help.
