Yes, I came to the same conclusion, I've hacked the source to 
((pdc)->raid.status & 0x00) 
so it's always 0 :)
After this dmraid correctly detected it.

It tells me it's functional, and pdcraid from 2.4 is also working fine

Though...

After a initrd nightmare I've got a /dev/mapper/pdc_jjajccdd and partitions, 
but only the first three partitions mounted fine. I couldn't mount the last 
partition :-(

During the initialisation from dmraid the kernel complained about an incorrect 
size, it looked like the last block device was zero sized.

While hacking dmraid's code I was really amazed about the clean code! Keep up 
the good work :-)
