I would have concerns on this one too -- imo dmraid should just handle
what it does now, which is to parse the raid metadata and configure the
device-mapper appropriately.  Dmraid shouldn't take over for kpartx (or
whatever other tool handles GPT), but if there is a conflict which is
keeping dmraid or kpartx from doing its job with GPT partitions then
this should be resolved.
