It has been two months, Heinz, have you caught up from your vacation
yet? Is there a reason for the whitespace to be stripped from the disk
serial number, or can we remove that?

The serial number for sdb does look fishy and it could be interacting
strangely with the library isspace() function used to strip out the
whitespace (if some of the strange characters are control characters).
This may be the reason why the raid set is recognized under Windows.
The question is, should the whitespace even be stripped? If the disk
has a space in its serial number, then shouldn't it be recorded in the
metadata with the space? If the space is supposed to be stripped then I
can see the isspace() behaving incorrectly on control characters, but it
seems to me that if the disk reports a space, the metadata should have a
space in it as well.
We will need a reply from Heinz on this.
